Special Report: Nevatim Air Base hit as Iran launches 70 missiles and
On March 14, 2026, the Islamic Republic of Iran launched its most significant military offensive to date, designated Operation True Promise 4. This coordinated assault involved 70 missiles and 59 drones, targeting critical Israeli and United States military infrastructure across the Middle East. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, or IRGC, specifically struck the Nevatim Air Base, which houses F-35 fighter jets, while also hitting U.S. bases such as Al-Udeid and Al-Dhafra. In a major escalation, the operation has led to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and reports of strikes on UAE oil infrastructure. Supported by Hezbollah and Iraqi resistance groups, the offensive marks a response to the February 28 aggression and the assassination of Ayatollah Khamenei. This shift towards targeting high-value industrial and military assets reflects a heightening of regional tensions and a strategic attempt to disrupt both military operations and energy supply chains.
