The IDF confirmed the death of terrorist Majid Khademi, head of the Intelligence Organization of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps
According to Israeli military sources, Khademi's death directly affects the Iranian regime's ability to coordinate terrorist operations globally. In particular, its link with Unit 840 of the Quds Force, responsible for planning and executing attacks outside Iranian borders, was highlighted. The neutralization of this structure, they argue in Israel, significantly reduces the international reach of such activities
In addition, from Jerusalem, it is considered that these actions also impact the regime's ability to suppress possible internal protests, a relevant factor given the recent history of mobilizations in Iran.
“Iran lives with a constant sense of persecution. We will continue to pursue them one by one,” Katz said, reaffirming the Israeli government's firm stance in the face of what it defines as direct threats to
its national security.The operations reflect a doctrine of preventive action on the part of Israel, aimed at dismantling threats before they materialize. In this context, the elimination of key figures such as Khademi is presented by Israeli authorities as a necessary step to contain the expansion of Iranian-backed terrorist networks and protect both Israel and regional stability
.
Israel's Defense Minister, Israel Katz, confirmed that the Israeli Air Force carried out a precise operation in which Majid Khademi, head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Intelligence Organization (IRGC), was eliminated. The Iranian organization itself acknowledged his death, calling him a “martyr”
.Khademi was considered one of the most important figures still active within the structure of the IRGC, especially after a series of selective removals carried out by the Israel Defense Forces in recent weeks. Since February, multiple senior leaders of the Iranian military and intelligence apparatus have been the target of Israeli operations, in what is interpreted as a sustained strategy to weaken the
regime's operational capacity.The Iranian official had managed to evade previous attacks, even after taking office in June 2025, following the death of his predecessor during a previous Israeli offensive. However, its removal marks a significant new blow against the Iranian security leadership
.
In parallel, the Israel Defense Forces reported that they also carried out a series of attacks against regime targets in Tehran. These operations are part of a broader campaign directed against infrastructures linked to military and intelligence activities
