According to Saednews, today the country’s Air Defense Headquarters announced in a statement: Since the beginning of the Zionist regime’s aggressions until 7 a.m. today, the defenders of the sky of Wilaya, with full vigilance and readiness of their defense equipment and weapons, have engaged over 130 enemy reconnaissance, combat, and suicide drones—including types like Hermes, Heron, and Harop suicide drones—and successfully destroyed and shot them down across various parts of the country.

The statement added that these drones are among the enemy’s most advanced reconnaissance-combat and strategic equipment, with the most important being Hermes 900, Hermes 450, and Heron drones, which have been destroyed by the country’s air defense fighters in recent days. Some images of these have been broadcast by national media.

According to Saednews, the Public Relations of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced in statement number 17 that ballistic missiles of the multi-warhead Kheibar (Qadr H) were fired for the first time in the 21st wave.

The impactful operation will continue using new special tactics, targeting the weaknesses of stronger and more powerful air defense systems. Meanwhile, throughout the day, drone combat operations will not cease even for a moment, forcing the occupiers of the occupied territories to continuously experience sirens, retreat, and seeking shelter.

This comprehensive national defense will continue until the complete elimination of the Zionist regime.
