Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has announced it struck 18 US military targets in Kuwait and Bahrain. This claim follows recent American attacks within Iranian territory, specifically in the south of the country. The IRGC stated the strikes were carried out using ballistic missiles and suicide drones. Notably, the Fifth Fleet, a key US naval force in the region, was also reportedly targeted by drone attacks. The announcement represents a significant escalation in tensions between the United States and Iran. Details regarding damage or casualties from the alleged strikes have not been independently verified. This action is presented by Iran as a retaliatory measure for US military actions.
