The Israeli military said on Sunday it has killed a senior commander of the Oil Headquarters of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
Mohammad Reza Ashrafi Kahi, the head of commerce within the Oil Headquarters, was killed on Friday during airstrikes in the Tehran area, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said.
It said the Oil Headquarters supports the elite IRGC's activities and military build-up, as well as those of its regional allies Hezbollah and the Houthis, through profits from oil sales.
A few days ago, Israel's military said it killed the commander of the Oil Headquarters of Iran's armed forces, which serves a similar purpose to the IRGC headquarters for the regular military.
The Israeli military described Kahi's death as "an additional significant blow to the economic foundations of Iran's security apparatus."
