Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) said Saturday that it had launched the 95th wave of Operation True Promise 4 against U.S. and Israeli targets, as the two countries continued airstrikes on Iran.

The new wave of offensive was carried out by the IRGC's Aerospace Force and Navy, targeting U.S. HIMARS (High Mobility Artillery Rocket System) rocket artillery batteries stationed in Kuwait, a U.S. Patriot missile system in Bahrain, locations hosting senior commanders and instructors of the U.S. military in Al Dhafra, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), as well as a facility belonging to the American artificial intelligence technology company Oracle Corporation in Dubai.

In addition, multiple locations in Tel Aviv, Petah Tikva, and Ramat Gan were subjected to sustained and heavy strikes, the IRGC said.

Yemen's Houthi group said in a statement on Saturday that it had carried out a joint military operation targeting Israeli military sites with Iran and Hezbollah in Lebanon, adding that the mission had "successfully achieved its objectives."

On the day, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it had detected a missile launched from Yemen. Air defense sirens sounded in multiple locations across central Israel, including Tel Aviv.

Meanwhile, the U.S. and Israel attacked key infrastructure and petrochemical facilities in Iran on Saturday.

According to Iranian media reports, U.S.-Israeli airstrikes caused violent explosions at the Mahshahr Special Petrochemical Zone in Iran's southwestern Khuzestan province.

Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant was attacked again on Saturday.

The U.S. and Israel also attacked a grain storage facility in Iran, but no casualties have been reported so far.

An endangered Indochinese gray langur has been captured on infrared camera in a nature reserve in southwest China's Yunnan Province, highlighting continued improvement in the area's biodiversity and conservation efforts.

Reserve staff recently discovered the footage while reviewing camera-trap data collected in a provincial nature reserve in Mojiang Hani Autonomous County, Pu'er City.

The video shows the langur climbing onto vine-covered branches with its long tail hanging below before pausing to scan its surroundings. After confirming the area was safe, the animal relaxed and remained perched in the forest canopy.

The Indochinese gray langur is listed as an endangered species on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List and is under China's first-class state protection.

Local authorities say strengthened habitat protection and management in recent years have steadily improved the local ecological environment. In addition to the rare langur, other protected wildlife, such as slow lorises, silver pheasants and red junglefowl, have also been recorded in the reserve, reflecting the recovery of local biodiversity.
