Iran’s IRGC Claims Strikes on Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait Air Bases Amid Retaliation Against US

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced a series of coordinated attacks on military facilities in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait, describing them as the opening phase of its retaliation against recent U.S strikes on Iranian coastal bases. 

According to the IRGC, missiles and drones targeted Prince Hassan Air Base in Jordan, setting fire to fuel depots and ammunition storage sites. In Bahrain, the group claimed strikes on Sheikh Isa Air base, hitting helicopted maintenance facilities, a hangar housing a P-8 aircraft, and a U.S drone command-and-control center.

In Kuwait, the IRGC said its forces "completely destroyed" fuel tanks and Patriot air defense syste,s at Ali Al-Salem Air Base, along with a strategic FPS radar syste, at Ahmed Al-jaber Air Base. 

The IRGC framed these operations as part of a continuing campaign to respond to US military action, signaling that further retaliatory strikes may follow. The escalation underscores rising tension across the Gulf Region, where U.S bases have become focal points in the confrontation.
