Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said it struck five military bases across Jordan, Kuwait, and Bahrain during its retaliatory strikes against the United States last night, according to the IRGC's own statement. The list includes the Muwaffaq al-Salti airbase in Jordan, the Ahmad al-Jaber and Ali al-Salem airbases in Kuwait, and the naval support base and Sheikh Isa airbase in Bahrain. The claims are unverified by independent sources.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said it struck five US-allied military bases in Jordan, Kuwait, and Bahrain during its retaliatory wave against the United States last night, according to an IRGC statement circulated by affiliated channels. The targets named are: Muwaffaq al-Salti airbase (Jordan), Ahmad al-Jaber and Ali al-Salem airbases (Kuwait), and the naval support base and Sheikh Isa airbase (Bahrain).
This marks the IRGC's most detailed claim of targets hit in the ongoing tit-for-tat escalation with the US. As The Zioneer reported earlier this morning (08:48 Jerusalem time), Iran had struck US bases in the same three countries in what was described as a second wave. An earlier IRGC statement (03:19 Jerusalem time) claimed 18 targets at three bases in Kuwait and Bahrain. The latest announcement expands both the geographic scope and the number of named facilities — now including Jordan's Muwaffaq al-Salti base, which the IRGC separately claimed to have hit with at least 11 solid-fuel missiles (10:44 Jerusalem time).
No US, Jordanian, Kuwaiti, or Bahraini official has confirmed the specific damage claims. The IRGC's statements remain the sole source for the list of targeted bases. Independent verification of the extent of damage and casualties is pending.
