Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) on Monday claimed it had launched missile and drone strikes against US military facilities in Bahrain, Jordan and Kuwait in retaliation for recent American attacks.

Separately, the US military said it had completed a fresh wave of operations against Iranian military assets and that the Strait of Hormuz remained open to commercial shipping.

In a series of statements published on its Sepahnews Telegram channel, the IRGC said it targeted Prince Hassan Air Base in Jordan, claiming the attack ignited missile ammunition depots and fuel storage facilities.

The force also said it struck Sheikh Isa Air Base in Bahrain, targeting helicopter maintenance and repair facilities, a hangar housing a P-8 electronic warfare aircraft and a US military drone command-and-control centre.

According to the IRGC, Iranian forces also attacked Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait, claiming to have destroyed fuel storage facilities, Patriot air defence systems and an FPS strategic radar installation.

The IRGC described the attacks as part of its ongoing retaliation campaign against the United States, saying it would not tolerate what it called unlawful US military activity in and around the Strait of Hormuz.

Meanwhile, US Central Command (Centcom) said it had concluded its latest round of strikes on Iran aimed at weakening Tehran’s capability to threaten maritime traffic through the strategic waterway.

In a statement posted on X, Centcom said US forces struck dozens of targets, including air defence systems, coastal radar installations, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats.

The operation involved fighter aircraft, naval vessels and, for the first time, one-way attack aerial drones and one-way attack sea drones, the command said.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade. Iran does not control it,” Centcom said, adding that US forces remained “postured and prepared” to safeguard freedom of navigation for commercial shipping despite what it described as Iran’s continued aggression, harassment and threats in the region.
