Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) announced Thursday that it has eliminated three heads of Iranian military forces in its war, supported by the U.S. Operation Epic Fury, against the radical, anti-America Islamist regime.
In three posts on its X.com page, IDF reported that it has killed an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp (IRGC) Navy commander, the head of the IRGC Intelligence Directorate and a senior commander of anti-tank operations:
“ELIMINATED: The IRGC Navy Commander Alireza Tangsiri, in a precise IDF strike in Bandar Abbas.”
“Additionally, the IDF eliminated the Head of the IRGC Navy Intelligence Directorate, Behnam Rezaei. Rezaei was responsible for intelligence collection on regional countries and led cooperation with various intelligence organizations.”
“ELIMINATED: Hassan Mohammad Bashir, a senior commander in Hezbollah’s anti-tank array in the Hajir area. Bashir advanced hundreds of terror attacks against IDF troops and Israeli civilians. He commanded several terrorist cells & recently, he had begun integrating into the anti-tank array north of the Litani River.”
The U.S. declared IRGC Admiral Tangsiri a Specially Designated Global Terrorist in 2019 and his death at the hands of an Israeli airstrike “makes the region safer,” U.S. CENTCOM Commander Admiral Brad Cooper wrote Thursday in a post on X.com.
