Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed Monday morning that it destroyed long-range radar systems in Oman and attacked American military targets in Bahrain, according to a single unverified source. The statement expands on earlier IRGC assertions delivered today: as The Zioneer reported at 08:40 Jerusalem, the IRGC earlier claimed it struck a US base in Bahrain and destroyed radar systems there. The new claim adds a geographic dimension, asserting radar systems were also destroyed in Oman.
The claim comes from a single source and has not been independently verified. The US military has not commented on either the earlier or expanded claims. The IRGC has a history of making unverified claims of strikes against US targets in the region; The Zioneer has previously reported on such claims in June and July, though none were independently confirmed.
What remains open: no independent confirmation of any damage or impact in either Oman or Bahrain; the nature of the radar systems reportedly destroyed is not specified.
