Iran's Revolutionary Guards confirmed today (Monday) the death of Ali Reza Tangsiri, commander of the Revolutionary Guards' navy, who was killed in an air force attack.
The confirmation comes 4 days after the IDF confirmed that it had eliminated Tangsiri.
In the attack that targeted an apartment in the Bandar Abbas area, not only was the commander of the Revolutionary Guards' navy present, but also a number of staff officers in the organization.
A security source told Kan News that this was a significant assassination operation because the Navy commander was being considered for prominence, even as a possible candidate for command of the Revolutionary Guards.
He was also responsible for Iran's operations in the Strait of Hormuz, which is one of the key points in the current war.
