Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) launched missile and drone strikes on U.S. military bases in the Middle East, including the Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain, early Wednesday in retaliation for U.S. airstrikes on Iran's Qeshm Island, Iranian media reported.
The IRGC said in a statement that late on Tuesday night, the U.S. forces attacked an Iranian-affiliated oil tanker near the Strait of Hormuz. In response, the IRGC Navy struck a vessel belonging to "hostile forces of the United States and Israel" with missiles.
The United States then carried out an airstrike on an IRGC communications post on Qeshm Island, triggering a second wave of Iranian retaliation. The IRGC Aerospace Force then fired missiles and drones at the U.S. Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain and an American air base in an unnamed Middle Eastern country, the statement said.
The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said on social media on Tuesday night local time that Iran fired several ballistic missiles at regional neighbors, but all missed their targets.
According to CENTCOM, two missiles aimed at Kuwait either fell short or broke apart en route, while three missiles fired at Bahrain were intercepted by U.S. and Bahrain air defense forces.
Earlier, the U.S. forces shot down three drones launched by Iran and carried out what they called a "self-defense" airstrike on an Iranian military ground control station on Qeshm Island, CENTCOM said.
In another social media post, CENTCOM said that "all Iranian attacks on American forces failed," adding that the U.S. forces remain vigilant and ready to defend against further aggression.
