Iran claims drone attack on US military base in Bahrain

These images, released by Iranian media, claim to show the Revolutionary Guard launched multiple drones. Their target, a U.S. radar system at a helicopter base in Bahrain. They claim six drones were launched in response to what it describes as hostile U.S. actions. Thank The IRGC reiterated that expensive American drones are being shut down one after another. And that more IRGC drones were dispatched towards American targets you in this phase than in the previous one, to make clear to the enemy that every act of aggression will very be met with a harsh and calculated response. Explosions were heard around the capital much. and Bahraini authorities condemned the attack and claimed that their air defence system intercepted the drones before they reached their target. The ministry considered these attacks a resumption of Iran's heinous aggression against the kingdom and countries in the region. The kingdom also rejects the transformation of its territory into an arena for settling scores and holds Iran fully responsible for these attacks and their consequences. Iran also targeted the kingdom on Friday, its first attack on a Gulf country since September. Bahrain lies directly across the Persian Gulf from Iran and is home to the US Navy's Fifth Fleet. The IRGC said the Strait of Hormuz remained closed and claimed that US efforts to escort ships through the waterway had failed, warning that any US attack would draw a more severe response. Diplomatic efforts to end the almost nine-month conflict have yet to produce a breakthrough, with sporadic attacks continuing. On Thursday, President Donald Trump said that the U.S. did not need a deal with Iran and tasked J.D. Vance, who had been leading previous negotiations with Tehran, to focus instead on domestic matters.
