Iran launches drone attack on U.S. assets in Bahrain

Iran's military said their forces carried out a drone attack on a U.S. radar system at a base in Bahrain, according to a statement carried by the Iranian state broadcaster on Sunday.

"The U.S. air defense radar system at the Al-Riffa helicopter base in Bahrain was targeted by six drones belonging to the IRGC Aerospace Force," the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said in a statement posted by the state broadcaster on Telegram.

Bahrain's military later said it had intercepted Iranian airstrikes before they hit their targets.

The interior ministry in an X post urged "residents to remain calm, proceed to the nearest safe location, and follow news through official channels for the protection of public safety."
