In a massive Israeli onslaught, the mastermind of Iran's elite Revolutionary Guards, General Major Hussein Salami, met his end. Reports trickled in from the Tasnim news agency, the Revolutionary Guards' own mouthpiece, stating that Salami fell victim to an attack on the command headquarters of the Revolutionary Guards. Salami held a significant standing in the Iranian Islamic Republic prior to his demise.
According to Israeli security sources, thejoint chief of staff, Mohammad Bagheri, was also removed from the game in this attack. Iranian state-run TV confirmed the casualty in the morning. Initially, state news agency Irna reported that Bagheri had miraculously survived the attack unscathed, holed up in a command center.

Mohammed Mehdi Tehrantschi, a distinguished physics professor, and Fereydun Abbasi, the former head of the Iranian nuclear program, were both killed, the agency claims. Israel's Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, pinpointed the Israeli attacks on the uranium enrichment plant in Natanz and scientists associated with it.
The Revolutionary Guards hold more power than the regular Iranian armed forces, both militarily and economically. Over the years, they've not only beefed up militarily but also extended their influence in the social and economic spheres, with stakes in hotels, airlines, and beyond.

According to US news site Axios, Israel's Mossad intelligence agency has been carrying out covert sabotage operations in parallel with the air force's actions[1].
