IRGC Intelligence Chief Majid Khademi Eliminated in Precision Strike

Iran’s top intelligence figure inside the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Brigadier General Majid Khademi, has been killed in a targeted early-morning airstrike.

Iranian state media confirmed Khademi’s death Monday, though initially offered few details.

Reports indicate Khademi was killed during coordinated U.S.-Israeli strikes targeting high-value regime assets in Tehran, part of an ongoing campaign to dismantle Iran’s military leadership from the top down.

The IRGC also confirmed the report, stating that Khademi had been “martyred” in the strike.

AP reported:

Israel and the United States carried out a wave of attacks on Iran on Monday, killing more than 25 people, and Iran responded with missile fire on Israel and its Gulf Arab neighbors. U.S. President Donald Trump’s deadline for Tehran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz loomed as mediators circulated a new ceasefire proposal.

Explosions rang out in Tehran and low-flying jets could be heard for hours as the capital was pounded. Thick black smoke rose near the city’s Azadi Square after one airstrike hit the grounds of the Sharif University of Technology.

Among those killed in one of the attacks was the head of intelligence for Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard, Maj. Gen. Majid Khademi, according to Iranian state media and Israel’s defense minister.

Iranian missiles hit the northern Israeli city of Haifa, where two people were found dead in the rubble of a residential building, and searchers looked for two more.

Khademi was one of the regime’s most powerful intelligence operators, overseeing counterintelligence, internal security, and surveillance operations used to crush dissent and coordinate foreign threats.

Khademi had only recently ascended to lead the IRGC’s Intelligence Organization, a feared entity tasked with rooting out dissent, suppressing opposition, and defending the regime from both foreign and domestic threats.

Before taking the top post, Khademi served as head of the IRGC’s Intelligence Protection Organization, where he was responsible for safeguarding the regime from infiltration and espionage.

His career also included leadership roles within Iran’s Defense Ministry intelligence units, making him a central figure in Tehran’s security architecture for years.
