Iran has launched missile attacks on US military bases in Bahrain and Kuwait, targeting residential areas housing American troops. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps claims to have hit multiple US bases in the region, including the US Navy's Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain's capital, Manama, and Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait.
Reports indicate that at least 100 US troops were injured in the attacks, with some reports suggesting that the number could be higher. The Iranian government has warned that it will continue to target US and Israeli assets in the region.
The attacks come in response to alleged US and Israeli strikes on Iranian targets, including a cancer treatment facility. The US and its allies have been on high alert in the region, with several countries closing their airspace and issuing warnings to their citizens.
