DUBAI: Israel said it killed the intelligence chief of Iran's Revolutionary Guard, Majid Khademi, on Monday.
Defence Minister Israel Katz made the announcement.
"The Revolutionary Guard are shooting at civilians and we are eliminating the leaders of the terrorists," Katz said.
"Iran's leaders live with a sense of being targeted. We will continue to hunt them down one by one."
Katz added that Israel had "severely damaged" Iran's steel and petrochemical industries as well.
"We will continue to crush the Iranian national infrastructure and lead to the erosion and collapse of the terrorist regime, and its capabilities to promote terror and fire at the state of Israel," he said.
