Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced this Friday (24) that it carried out a new attack against the infrastructure of technology giant Amazon in the Middle East.
The military body indicated that it was the “remaining building” of the company’s data center, whose complex in Bahrain had already been attacked on Tuesday (21). It specified that the target was destroyed during the 27th wave of Operation Nasr-2 (Victory-2).
The CGRI accused Amazon of “playing a key role in intelligence gathering for the US Army.”
On Thursday (23), the Iranian news agency IRNA published satellite images that it says show the destruction of Amazon’s infrastructure and its cloud service providers located in Bahrain. The publication details that the attack targeted one of the nodes that support the information infrastructure.
In turn, the Central Command (CentCom) also reported, on Friday night and early morning (local time), operations against military installations, while Iranian media reported explosions, missile attacks and air defense activities in several cities, including Khondab, Khorramabad, Konarak, Jask and Tehran. Bombings of civilian infrastructure have been a constant in the Pentagon’s ongoing air campaign.
Explosions were also reported on the island of Qeshm, in addition to loud bangs audible in Ahvaz, the capital of Khuzestan province. The Iranian News Agency More reported the impact of US missiles on the cities of Andimeshk and Omidiyeh, located in the same province of Khuzestan.
In the port city of Bandar Abbas, the semi-official news agency Fars reported that an incursion by US troops into a residential area left two people injured.
At the same time, according to the US press, Trump is close to making a decision on a possible large-scale attack and military preparations are underway.
The head of the White House told the Axios by phone on Thursday that he is considering launching a “massive attack.” “I’m considering a massive attack. Bigger than ever. I’m close to making a decision. We’re all ready,” Trump said, expressing confidence that the US would “join in two minutes” if he requested it.
Iran rejects new ceasefire agreement
Iran has rejected a ceasefire proposal put forward by President Donald Trump and taken to Tehran by Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi, the newspaper reported. The New York Times (NYT) on Thursday (23).
According to the vehicle, Iranian and Iraqi officials said that the prime minister led mediation between the parties and traveled to the Iranian capital after meeting with Trump at the White House.
In Tehran, Al-Zaidi met with the regime’s top officials, including President Masoud Pezeshkian, the country’s chief negotiator, Brigadier General Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. However, the sources added that the Persian government does not want a temporary agreement that does not resolve the issue of control of the Strait of Hormuz.
Araghchi told state television that there are already enough mediators and that “the problem is the perspective of the United States, which is illogical, greedy and controlling,” according to The New York Times.
