On April 6, 2026, Major-General Majid Khademi, head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' (IRGC) intelligence division, was killed in a US-Israeli airstrike. Khademi had been sanctioned by the US earlier in 2026 for his role in suppressing anti-government protests in Iran. His assassination marks a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict, as he was a key figure in Iran's intelligence apparatus, having previously led the Guards' Intelligence Protection Organization. This attack is part of a broader campaign that has already seen the deaths of several high-ranking IRGC officials since the onset of hostilities. The IRGC has vowed to continue its operations despite these losses, indicating resilience in leadership replacement. The assassination has raised tensions in the region, with implications for Iran's internal security and its response to foreign threats.
