The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced in a statement published by the official Iranian news agency (IRNA) on Tuesday that its forces targeted a U.S. airbase in Bahrain.
According to a statement posted by IRNA on Telegram, "The Revolutionary Guard announced that its naval forces carried out a large-scale attack using drones and missiles at dawn on the U.S. airbase in the Sheikh Isa area of Bahrain."
The IRGC added in its statement that it launched 20 drones and three missiles, which "destroyed the main command headquarters of the base," without providing any evidence to support the claim.
Since Saturday, Israel and the United States have been conducting airstrikes on Iran, which led to the death of the Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Since then, Tehran has retaliated by striking Israel and several countries in the region with missiles and drones.
