Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claims it attacked targets in Bahrain and Kuwait overnight in retaliation for American strikes against Iran, according to the IRGC's own statement. The claim is unverified by independent sources and follows a series of similar IRGC assertions in recent weeks.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) stated overnight that it struck targets in Bahrain and Kuwait in retaliation for American strikes against Iran. The claim, published in a Telegram post at 05:41 Jerusalem, follows a pattern of similar IRGC assertions over the past several weeks.
As The Zioneer reported at 02:54 this morning (SAME-THREAD), a prior IRGC claim attributed a drone strike on US targets at the Sheikh Isa base in Bahrain. That bulletin was based on a single unverified report and carried the Developing signal. The new 05:41 message does not specify targets, weapons used, or damage — it names no bases in Kuwait or Bahrain.
The IRGC has issued a string of similar statements since early June — covering alleged strikes in Jordan, Kuwait, and Bahrain — none of which have been independently corroborated. A separate claim that the IRGC was preparing for expected US strikes and threatening immediate retaliation was reported by The Zioneer on June 11.
The 05:41 statement remains a single-source claim. Neither the US military, nor governments in Bahrain or Kuwait, have commented. The Zioneer rates this as Developing — credible by virtue of coming from the IRGC's own channels, but uncorroborated by independent sources.
