Iran War: Iran attacks targets in Bahrain with drones
The US military repeatedly targets radar stations and missile launch pads on the Iranian coast. In response, Iran is now reporting an attack on Bahrain, a US ally.
Iran's Revolutionary Guards have claimed to have attacked a US military base in Bahrain, stating that six drones hit the radar system at the Al-Riffa helicopter base south of Manama. The Bahraini Defence Ministry reported successfully repelling an Iranian drone attack, but the claims could not be independently verified. The US military's Centcom did not provide immediate comment.
The attack comes after recent exchanges between Iran and the US, with Iran responding to reported US military strikes in southern Iran. Bahrain's Interior Ministry had earlier issued rocket alerts and advised residents to take shelter.
