In a statement carried by the official IRNA news agency, the Iranian military confirmed that its navy targeted Israel and US assembly points and bases with a massive wave of drone strikes.
The military added that among the targets were Al Minhad Air Base in the UAE, which houses US forces, another base in Kuwait, and a "strategic facility" inside Israel.
Israel and the United States have been conducting airstrikes against Iran since Saturday, February 28, which resulted in the death of the Iranian Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei. Since then, Tehran has retaliated by striking Israel and regional countries with missiles and drones.
Furthermore, Iran has enforced a maritime blockade on vessel transit through the Strait of Hormuz, targeting oil tankers that attempted to pass.
On Sunday, March 1, Hezbollah launched several missiles from Lebanon targeting northern Israel in response to Khamenei's assassination. This has drawn Lebanon into an open war with Israel, as the latter carries out devastating raids on southern Lebanon and the southern suburbs of Beirut (Dahiyeh). — (Agencies)
