The Iranian army said Wednesday morning that its drones struck concentrations of American forces at the Sheikh Isa Air Base in Bahrain, citing US 'aggression' and violations of a ceasefire. The claim, reported by Iranian state-affiliated sources, could not be independently verified.
The Iranian army announced Wednesday morning that its drones had struck US forces at Sheikh Isa Air Base in Bahrain, claiming the attack was in response to American 'aggression' and violations of a ceasefire. The statement follows an earlier warning from the Iranian military that all US bases in the region were legitimate targets for drone strikes, as The Zioneer reported at 08:33 Jerusalem. The claim marks an escalation in rhetoric, though no independent confirmation of the attack has emerged. The Sheikh Isa Air Base, a key US facility in Bahrain, has been a recurring target of Iranian drone claims in recent weeks, including an alleged strike on June 28 that was reported but not independently verified.
