Iran fired missiles at Kuwait and Bahrain, U.S. Central Command says
U.S. Central Command says Iran fired missiles at Kuwait and Bahrain, marking the first time Bahrain has been attacked since the ceasefire between Iran and the U.S. was agreed to on April 7.
According to Kuwait’s Army HQ, “a number of hostile drones targeted today the passenger building (T1) at Kuwait International Airport,” injuring 63 people according to Kuwait’s Health Ministry.
In Bahrain, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed they struck U.S. 5th Fleet headquarters and a U.S. air base in the region.
U.S. Central Command said “all Iranian attacks on American forces failed,” and insisted the ceasefire is in place.
Central Command said it launched “self defense” strikes overnight on Iran, “on Qeshm Island in response to attempted attacks by Iran across the Middle East.”
