Iran's IRGC targets 85 US military sites in Bahrain, Kuwait

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps says its naval and aerospace forces have carried out a joint missile and drone operation targeting 85 sites at “important US military facilities”.

The IRGC said the strikes hit the US Fifth Fleet base in Bahrain and Ali Al-Salem Air Base in Kuwait, according to Al Jazeera.

It said the operation was an “initial response” to what it called a US violation of the ceasefire and the Islamabad agreement, after US aerial attacks on coastal bases and non-military stations in Hormozgan and Mahshahr earlier today.

The IRGC also linked the US attacks to the funeral procession for Iran’s late leader, saying Washington was trying to overshadow the “historical event”.
