Iran on Monday claimed it deployed some of its most advanced weapons during overnight retaliatory strikes against Israel. According to the Iranian media, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) used newly unveiled jet-powered drones and Kheibar-Shikan long-range ballistic missiles in attacks targeting Israeli cities, including Haifa. The Iranian media described the Kheibar-Shikan as a third-generation missile capable of reaching hypersonic speeds during its descent, making interception more difficult. The reported strikes came after an Israeli attack on a petrochemical facility in southwestern Iran, which Tehran says prompted its retaliation.
