Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has announced that it struck the air defense radar station at a US military base in Bahrain using six unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
According to the IRGC statement, the strike was carried out in response to hostile actions by the United States.
Air raid sirens sounded in Bahrain early this morning. The country's authorities urged residents to seek shelter but did not disclose where the threat was coming from.
The announcement of the strike in Bahrain indicates that the confrontation between Iran and the United States could also have a direct impact on the security of countries hosting a US military presence. In this case, the target was not an ordinary military facility but an air defense radar station, which plays a key role in detecting aerial threats.
For now, the available information is based primarily on statements from the Iranian side. No details have been released about the consequences of the strike, possible damage or the US response. However, the Bahraini authorities' call for residents to seek shelter indicates that the situation has gone beyond military statements and has also affected the safety of the country's population.
