IRGC Launches Waves 82-83 of Operation True Promise 4 Targeting US and Israeli Assets

The IRGC executed waves 82 and 83 of Operation True Promise 4, deploying advanced long-range and medium-range missiles, multi-warhead systems, and loitering drones against U.S. and Israeli military installations. Targets included Ashdod oil depot, a U.S. military information exchange center, Al-Dhafra and Al-Udeiri bases, and Ali Al-Salem Air Base maintenance hangars. Wave 82 comprised 220 coordinated operations including 87 by Hezbollah, 23 by Iraqi resistance groups, and 110 by Iranian forces directly. The tempo of daily strike waves has not decreased despite ongoing diplomatic overtures.

Analysis
Strike tempo has not decreased despite diplomatic overtures; the IRGC executed waves 82-83 during the same 24 hours Trump announced the pause extension. The inclusion of 87 Hezbollah and 23 Iraqi militia operations within the wave count demonstrates the coordinated multi-theater nature of Iran's response. The targeting of logistics and maintenance hangars suggests intelligence-driven operations aimed at sustainment capacity rather than symbolic strikes.
