“IRGC hits Haifa refinery in response to Israeli regime’s attack on Tehran refinery,” Iran’s Mehr news agency reported.

What we know about the attack

The public relations department of the IRGC issued also reportedly said in a statement on Saturday night that the attack on the Haifa facility was in “in response to [Israel] targeting Tehran refinery.”

The statement also said that the attack was carried out with Kheibar Shekan missiles.

Air raid sirens had sounded earlier on Saturday in the area of Haifa, but there have been no reports in Israel of anything being hit, Reuters said.

The IRGC’s claim, which is yet to be confirmed officially or independently, came after Israel carried out air strikes on oil depots.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it struck “several fuel storage complexes” in Iran’s capital on Saturday night, which the country’s National Iranian Oil Company later confirmed.
