Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has publicly revealed its new decentralized “Ghost Command” structure – a network of underground and mobile command nodes designed to survive leadership decapitation strikes. The revelation came after heavy U.S. and Israeli airstrikes killed several senior IRGC commanders in Tehran. Iranian officials warned that continued attacks will trigger deployment of previously undisclosed hypersonic missiles and “deadly new surprises” capable of striking deep inside Israeli and Gulf territory.

U.S. and Israeli intelligence sources confirm the Ghost Command has allowed Iran to maintain missile launch rates despite massive damage to fixed facilities. Analysts describe the strategy as a shift toward prolonged asymmetric warfare.

Tehran insists the new weapons will change the balance of power if the conflict continues. Meanwhile, oil markets remain volatile and Gulf states have increased alert levels. The disclosure has raised concerns in Washington and Jerusalem about the difficulty of achieving a quick decisive victory.
