Israel eliminated Iran's entire leadership in less than one hour.

Following last night's successful military air offensive, Israel delivered the harshest blow to Iran in recent decades, eliminating in less than an hour the entire leadership of the military and strategic power of the Islamic regime, with the exception of the supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who unfortunately remains alive.

The operation, executed with surgical precision, targeted the main command and control centers of the Iranian war apparatus, from the facilities of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to specialized air and ground units.

The eliminated terrorist leaders

The offensive claimed the lives of key figures who had sustained the regime for more than 30 years. Among the eliminated targets is Hossein Salami, IRGC commander, one of the most influential figures in Iranian military power, responsible for regional and intelligence operations.

Mohammad Bagheri, Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces, who coordinated the integration between conventional and revolutionary forces, was also killed.

The attack not only dismantled the upper command structure, but also incapacitated those who led operational forces on all fronts.

Gholam Ali Rashid, Chief of the Central Headquarters; Amir Ali Hajizadeh, commander of the IRGC Aerospace Force, key in the development of ballistic missiles; and Esmail Qaani, leader of the Quds Force, the division responsible for extraterritorial operations and Soleimani's successor after his death in 2020, were neutralized, representing a total collapse of the Iranian military system.

The secondary command network was also dismantled: Davood Sheikhlian, Deputy Director of Air Force Operations, and Taher-Pour, commander of the UAV unit, fell in the first minutes of the offensive.

One of the most symbolic impacts was the elimination of Ali Shamkhani, principal advisor and right-hand man to the supreme leader, which implies not only a military blow, but also a political one. The action, according to reports, would have occurred after the collapse of diplomatic negotiations between Iran and the U.S., framed in a coordinated strategy between Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu.

The devastating operation puts the Iranian regime's immediate response capability in check and exposes it to an unprecedented internal succession and military reorganization crisis.

With this offensive, Israel not only neutralized the Iranian nuclear and ballistic program, but also rewrote the geopolitical board of the Middle East.
