Israel hits IRGC military university in Tehran
Israel says it has struck a major Iranian military-linked facility in Tehran, targeting what it described as the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ (IRGC) “main military university.”
In a statement released on Monday, the Israeli military said it hit infrastructure at Imam Hossein University, calling it a key center connected to the IRGC, News.Az reports, citing foreign media.
The university, according to Israel, is commanded by senior IRGC officer Mohammad Reza Hassani Ahangar. The statement also claimed the institution and several of its officials have already been sanctioned by multiple countries.
