Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) will likely target Israeli infrastructure in the event of a war between the two states, the deputy commander of the elite unit said on Friday as tensions escalated in the region.

IRGC deputy commander-in-chief Ali Fadavi named refineries and "energy sources" as possible targets, the Mehr news agency and state television reported.

On Tuesday, the Iranian forces fired around 200 missiles at Israel. The attack followed a series of targeted killings by Israel of key players in Iran's network of non-state allies, including high-ranking IRGC commanders.
