Iran says they conducted 85 strikes on US military targets in Bahrain and Kuwait

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said Wednesday it launched a large-scale missile and drone operation targeting 85 US military sites and facilities in Bahrain and Kuwait, describing the attacks as retaliation for overnight American strikes on Iranian territory. In a statement carried by Iranian state media, the IRGC said its naval and aerospace forces carried out the operation after accusing Washington of violating a ceasefire agreement. This, after US forces struck 80 targets inside Iran overnight, prompting what Tehran called a “decisive response.” The Revolutionary Guards also claimed Iranian air defenses shot down a US MQ-9 Reaper drone over southern Iran, describing the incident as a response to what they called continued American aerial aggression in the Gulf. Separately, Iranian state media reported that one member of the IRGC Navy was killed in an attack by what it described as “enemy drones.”
