Iran has announced that 18 major US military targets in Kuwait and Bahrain have come under attack amid rapidly escalating regional tensions.
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) said the targets included the Ali Al Salem and Ahmad Al Jaber bases in Kuwait, along with the Sheikh Isa base in Bahrain.
Separately, Iran’s military said it targeted Patriot systems and communications facilities belonging to the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain.
It added that suicide drones had been launched toward the US Fifth Fleet in response to what it described as American attacks on southern Iran.
The developments come amid escalating tensions following US strikes on southern Iran and Iran’s subsequent attacks targeting US military assets across the region.
