IRGC: Destroyed eight US installations, offending vessels will face harsher action
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said it carried out a coordinated missile and drone operation against what it described as eight major US military installations in Bahrain and Kuwait, including the Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait and the US Fifth Fleet headquarters at Salman Port in Bahrain, according to IRNA.
The IRGC described the operation as retaliation for recent US strikes on Iranian targets and warned that any future attacks would be met with "overwhelming force".
It also said vessels that violate Iran's navigation rules in the Strait of Hormuz would face harsher action.
According to the statement, further military escalation would undermine Article 1 of the Islamabad memorandum of understanding and could jeopardise ongoing diplomatic efforts.
