The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced that the second phase of Operation Nasr (Victory) targeted multiple weapons depots, a satellite communication facility, and a structure housing US forces in Bahrain. The claims are unverified by independent sources.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) issued a statement early Tuesday that it has executed the second phase of Operation Nasr (Victory), striking what it described as multiple weapons depots, a satellite communication facility, and a structure accommodating United States forces in Bahrain.
The announcement follows a series of earlier IRGC claims of attacks on US installations in Bahrain and other Gulf states, including the first phase of Operation Nasr on July 13 targeting Prince Hassan Airbase in Jordan—which The Zioneer reported at the time as an unverified claim. Previous IRGC statements in June and July asserted attacks on the Sheikh Isa airbase in Bahrain and other US-linked targets in Kuwait and Jordan.
As with those earlier reports, these new claims remain unverified by independent sources. No confirmation has emerged from US Central Command, Bahraini authorities, or any third-party media. The IRGC has not released imagery or other corroborating evidence.
The operation's name, "Nasr" (Victory), has been used by Iran across different eras and conflicts, most notably during the Iran–Iraq War, making the specific context critical: here it is tied to the IRGC's claimed retaliation for reported US strikes on Iranian positions.
