Iran is planning to launch “Operation True Promise 3” in response to October 2024 Israeli strikes on Iran that killed 6 Iranian soldiers and damaged military sites. The operation is expected to take place after the US election but before the inauguration of the new president in January 2025. Commander of IRGC General Hossein Salami has warned that the attack will be harsh and "unimaginable".[1] On 8 November 2024 IRGC test fired a long range missile possibly in preparation for the attack.[2] Hossein Taeb has said the operation hurts Israel and Americans' image, the way least expected.[3]
