The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed it struck and destroyed US military installations at the Juffair naval base in Bahrain, including an FPS long-range air warning radar and a maritime surveillance radar in the Gulf of Oman. The IRGC warned that continued US intervention would lead to 'greater events' in the global oil and gas sector. The claims are from a single source and have not been independently verified.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) issued a new statement on Monday morning claiming it had struck and destroyed US military installations and radar systems at the Juffair naval base in Bahrain, as well as an FPS long-range air warning radar and a maritime surveillance radar in the Gulf of Oman. The statement, published by the IRGC's official the source, warned that continued US military intervention would 'lead to greater events in the global oil and gas sector' and threatened to tighten control over the Strait of Hormuz.
The claim is the latest in a series of IRGC statements over the past 24 hours. As The Zioneer reported earlier today (07:07 Jerusalem), the IRGC previously claimed to have destroyed Patriot systems and a radar at US bases in Kuwait. A separate bulletin at 07:01 Jerusalem detailed a claim of destroying a US drone command center at Sheikh Isa airbase in Bahrain. The IRGC also warned Gulf residents to stay away from US bases and missile systems (22:13 Jerusalem, July 12).
All of these claims originate from a single source — the IRGC itself — and have not been independently verified. No US or allied official has confirmed any damage at the Juffair base or elsewhere in Bahrain. The claims remain unsubstantiated.
