A vast swarm of attack and suicide drones has made its way to the occupied territories as Iranian armed forces launched the nineteenth phase of Operation True Promise III.
The new phase was launched at around 12:45 am local time on Sunday.
In a statement before the launch of the nineteenth phase of the retaliatory military operation, a spokesperson for the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) announced that a vast swarm of attack and suicide drones has set toward strategic targets in the occupied territories
He said the targets are scattered across the Zionist entity, from the north to the south.
"I warn the Zionist regime’s confused air-defense system to be on alert. This operation will be continuous, sustained, disrupting their balance," said Brigadier General Ali Mohammed Naeini.
Flying objects seen above the skies of southern Lebanon likely suspected to be Iranian drones headed towards Israeli-occupied territories as part of the 19th wave of Operation True Promise 3.

Meanwhile, Israeli media reported air raid sirens blaring across the occupied territories as a warning for settlers to head back to underground shelters immediately.
The regime has imposed a blanket ban on the publication of any images pertaining to Iran's missile and drone operations, which have caused extensive damage across the occupied territories, including in Tel Aviv and Haifa.
The nineteenth operation comes hours after the Islamic Republic of Iran Army launched dozens of combat and suicide drones at the occupied Palestinian territories.
In a statement, the army said the drones targeted Israeli military positions with precision.
The drones were launched as part of the seventh and eighth stages of the retaliatory military operation against the Zionist regime over the past 24 hours.

These operations are in response to the Israeli regime's continued aggression against the Islamic Republic, which started last Friday with the assassination of top military chain of command, scientists and university professors, as well as journalists, athletes and others.
Iranian armed forces have so far carried out 19 phases of the combined missile and drone operations against the Zionist entity, inflicting heavy blows on strategic targets.
Iranian Army has also carried out eight drone operations against the enemy with success.
