Iran has said it targeted US military sites in six Arab countries following recent US strikes on its territory, while Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Jordan said they intercepted Iranian missiles and drones targeting their territories.

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) said on Friday its Aerospace Force targeted a US military base in Kuwait as part of the 12th wave of its operation, according to the semi-official Mehr News Agency.

The IRGC said the targets included a missile defence detection and tracking radar, several weapons depots, two High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) launchers and missiles stored for the system.

It claimed the strike triggered a large fire at the base.

The IRGC said the operation was carried out in response to recent US attacks that it claimed targeted civilian facilities, telecommunications infrastructure, railway workers and vehicles, causing casualties.

Kuwait

The Kuwaiti army said that several Kuwaiti soldiers were wounded after Iranian drones targeted multiple military facilities and bases in the country. It did not disclose the number of casualties or identify the targeted sites.

Earlier, the army said its air defence systems intercepted Iranian missiles and drones targeting the country.

Oman

In Oman, the IRGC said its navy targeted radar sites, including a US air-control radar, according to the ISNA news agency.

Citing an IRGC statement, ISNA reported that a naval control radar on the Salameh Rocks and a US air-control radar in Oman's Ghanem region were targeted at dawn. The IRGC claimed both sites were destroyed.

Syria

In Syria, the IRGC said its Aerospace Force struck a US special operations command centre in the Al-Tanf region, according to Fars News Agency.

The IRGC claimed the strike destroyed a radar system and several special operations helicopters. It also claimed that several US troops were captured during the operation.

There was no immediate comment from Syrian authorities on the alleged attack.

A Syrian military source, however, denied that Iran bombed the base, AFP reported

"We deny any Iranian bombardment targeting the Al-Tanf area," the source said, speaking on condition of anonymity. US forces said they withdrew from the base earlier this year.

Jordan

Jordan said it intercepted and shot down three Iranian missiles that entered its airspace, with no casualties reported, according to the state-run Petra news agency.

Meanwhile, the IRGC said it carried out a two-phase attack on US fighter jets and aerial refuelling aircraft stationed in Jordan using several ballistic missiles and a large number of drones, according to the official IRNA news agency.

Qatar

Qatar's armed forces also said they intercepted several aerial attacks targeting the country, according to the defence ministry. The interior ministry said one child was wounded by falling shrapnel from interception operations.

The IRGC said that it attacked the US Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, claiming it destroyed a long-range radar system and several US aerial refuelling aircraft.

Bahrain

Iran's army also said it launched a drone strike targeting facilities used by US military aircraft at Al-Sakhir Air Base in Bahrain, claiming it hit areas where US military helicopters and P-8 maritime patrol and reconnaissance aircraft were stationed.

Bahrain's defence force said its air defence systems intercepted and destroyed "several treacherous Iranian aerial attacks."

The US Central Command (CENTCOM) said on Thursday that it completed a new wave of offensive strikes against Iran, marking the sixth consecutive night of US military operations targeting Iranian military assets, mainly in southern Iran.

Regional tensions have escalated over the Strait of Hormuz as the US and Iran continue exchanging attacks despite a Pakistan-brokered memorandum of understanding signed last month to end the conflict and reach a lasting peace agreement.

Oxb90:
Why are they not bombing the USA directly, why their proxies. Yeye people. All they think about day and night is nothing but war. They are the ones producing and supporting terrorism all over the world. No thought of how to help humanity at all. Has all the wars they've fought helped their economy?

God1000:
they are defending their country, there's nothing wrong in doing that, you are angry because your desire to see Iran becoming another Gaza has been thwarted.

The invaders are the real terrorists

God1000:
Iran na your mate, God bless the Islamic republic of Iran, the slayer of terrorists

Elusive001:
Over 33 USA refuellers are in Israel. Why are your islam defenders, Iran, not attacking israel? The USA has quite enormous military presence amd station in israel specifically for the current war. Why is Iran avoiding israel?

God1000:
let israel attack Iran first, it is then you will know what Iran will do to them

The last time Iran pounded them so hard that they begged for a ceasefire, keep supporting evil all in the because of religion

Elusive001:
So Jordan, Syria, Kuwait, Bahrain, etc attacked Iran first.

Bros, American refuellers take off from israel to deal with Iran.

To who brain is given, sense is expected

madridguy:
This is a good response though not enough for the damages the USA has caused Iran.

For the people that will say Iran is always bombing their neighbors. They're doing so because without their neighbors the USA cannot strike them.

God1000:
Iran is only striking US military bases in these countries, not the civilians


If you host my enemy and allow him to attack me, you are equally my enemy

God1000:
let israel attack Iran first, it is then you will know what Iran will do to them

The last time Iran pounded them so hard that they begged for a ceasefire, keep supporting evil all because of religion



If someone invaded your family house, killed your father, siblings and destroyed the house, would you just thank the person and bow down in submission or fight back and avenge the death of your family members?

HacheNoire:
Iran matching madness for madness!

The next US defense budget will be out of this world! So much has been lost and it’s the tax payers that will foot the bills.

But at a time, those Arab countries got guys! Evict the US and stay in peace. Those bases are targets in present and future wars. Your country will always be a target!
