The Revolutionary Guard fired a total of seven ballistic missiles at the Israeli intelligence facility in Erbil, Iraq, during the airstrike, and simultaneously struck Islamic State (IS) terrorist facilities located in Syria with missiles, the media explained.

Meanwhile, reports emerged that several explosions were heard in southeastern Iran on the same day due to airstrikes by Pakistan.

According to major foreign media, Iran had previously attacked the base of the Sunni separatist armed group 'Jaish al-Adl' in Pakistan on the 16th with missiles. It appears that Pakistan retaliated with bombing raids two days later.
