Iran has launched Operation “Tidings of Victory” against the American Al-Udeid base in Qatar, and American bases in Iraq. Explosions have been reported and American air defences have been activated.

At least six rockets bombed the base, which is the largest in the Middle East. Sirens are ringing in Bahrain, and American soldiers across bases in Iraq have entered shelters, following the Iranian missile attack on Udeid base in Qatar.

The Islamic Revolution Guard Corps has since released a statement on the launch of Operation Tidings of Victory. Addressing the people of Iran, the IRGC says that its actions on US military bases in Qatar and Iraq are in response to the blatant military aggression by the US against the peaceful nuclear facilities of the Islamic Republic.

The IRGC affirmed that the response was in planned with the Supreme National Security Council and the leadership of the Khatam al-Anbiya (PBUH) Central Headquarters. The US Al Udeid base in Qatar is the headquarters of the Air Force Central Command and the largest strategic asset of the American military in the West Asia region.

The IRGC says that Operation Tidings of Victory sends a clear message to the US; that the Islamic Republic of Iran, which relies on the Almighty Creator, will under no circumstances leave unanswered any aggression against its territorial integrity, sovereignty, and national security.

It also affirms that the US aggression on Sunday proved that the evil of the Zionist entity is an extension of the American design. The IRGC also reminded Iranians, and the world that tonight’s operations were acts of national defense.

The American military bases and mobile targets in the region are not a point of strength, but rather a great weakness and the Achilles’ heel of this warmongering regime.
