In a statement carried by the IRNA news agency, the IRGC said it targeted US “drone maintenance and repair sheds” at Al-Sakhir Airport in Bahrain, claiming the facilities were destroyed.
The group also said it attacked preparation facilities for US Navy Task Force 59 vessels at Salman Port in Bahrain, causing “destruction and heavy damage.”
According to the statement, the IRGC also targeted Marine Special Forces facilities at the Arifjan base in Kuwait, claiming they were set on fire and “completely destroyed.”
