According to foreign reports, strikes hit the Al Udeid air base in Qatar and the US 5th Fleet base in Bahrain. The reports are unverified by independent sources, and no official confirmation has been issued by the US military or local authorities.
Foreign reports early Sunday morning indicate strikes on two key US military installations in the Gulf: Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, which hosts the Combined Air Operations Center (CAOC), and Naval Support Activity Bahrain, home to the US 5th Fleet. The reports, cited by a single source, are unverified by independent sources. No official confirmation has been issued by the US military, CENTCOM, or local authorities in Qatar or Bahrain. The reports come amid an ongoing exchange of strikes between Iran and the US in the Gulf region, which has seen multiple waves of attacks on US bases in recent weeks. As The Zioneer has previously reported, Iran has claimed responsibility for strikes on US positions in Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, and Jordan, though many of those claims remain unverified. The extent of damage and any casualties from the reported strikes are not yet known.
