The IDF also said it assassinated Golem Reza Soleimani, head of the IRGC's Basage militia, and Soleimani's deputy, Said Karishi, in a strike described as aimed at the Basage leadership, and at disrupting the regime's command and control. An Israeli official said the Basage leadership was largely eliminated overnight, and the military said the IRGCS Aerospace Force Chief was killed in the same campaign. Iranian authorities suggested Larajani was due to address the public, though IDF sources voiced skepticism about any public statement preceding from the strike. Some observers have described Larajani as a leading figure, running the Iranian regime in the period, since Ayatollah Ali Kaminay's leadership, though such characterizations vary. In direct Israeli-run clashes, reports say a missile fell in an open area with no immediate accompanying damage or casualties cited, underscoring an ongoing exchange.
