Report:
Wave 54: Iran fired a new wave of ballistic missiles—designated “Operation True Promise IV”—striking Holon, Rishon LeZion, and other central urban areas.
Impact Damage: Footage confirmed burning vehicles, road craters, and structural damage; Magen David Adom (MDA) treated at least five injured individuals.
Defense Penetration: Despite advanced air defenses, several missiles penetrated the shield, forcing residents in Tel Aviv and surrounding cities into bomb shelters with only 90 seconds of warning.
Retaliation: Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that Tehran has “never asked for a ceasefire,” maintaining that these strikes are direct responses to the 200 bombs dropped on Tehran by Israel on March 13.
TWU Intelligence & Analysis: The use of cluster munition warheads in this wave indicates Iran’s intent to cause maximum area disruption within central Israeli civilian centers. By explicitly refusing ceasefire talks and citing the US destruction of the Kharg Island oil terminal as justification, Tehran is signaling that it is prepared for a long-term, high-intensity conflict.
