US Strike in Kermanshah Kills Four IRGC Aerospace Forces Personnel

A US strike in Kermanshah, western Iran, killed four members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Forces. The attack occurred on September 2, 2026, and marked a direct escalation in tensions between the United States and Iran.

On September 2, 2026, a US strike targeted Kermanshah, a western province of Iran, resulting in the deaths of four IRGC Aerospace Forces personnel, according to reports from IRNA and Al Mayadeen. The attack was confirmed by IRGC public relations in Kermanshah. The US did not immediately comment on the strike, though it has been previously accused of targeting Iranian military assets in the region. The incident follows a pattern of US drone strikes in Iran, which have been condemned by Tehran as acts of aggression.
