The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed it struck the Ali al-Salem base in Kuwait and destroyed a Patriot air defense system and fuel depots, as well as a strategic FPS radar system at the Ahmed al-Jaber base, as part of the third phase of its 'reciprocal action' operation. The claims are based on a single source and have not been independently verified, according to Israeli media.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has issued a new claim of strikes on US military installations in Kuwait, describing it as the third phase of its 'reciprocal action' operation. In a statement reported by Israeli media, the IRGC said it struck the Ali al-Salem base, destroying fuel depots and a Patriot air defense system, and also struck the Ahmed al-Jaber base, destroying a strategic FPS radar system.
This latest claim follows an earlier IRGC statement from earlier today, reported by The Zioneer at 05:54 Jerusalem, in which the IRGC claimed it had destroyed fuel depots and Patriot systems at the same two bases. The new claim adds the 'third phase' designation and the specific destruction of the FPS radar.
The IRGC has made multiple similar claims over the past weeks alleging strikes on US bases in Kuwait, Bahrain, Jordan, and Qatar. None of these claims have been independently verified by Western or Israeli sources. Kuwaiti authorities have not confirmed any of the alleged attacks.
The Zioneer has reported on these claims in previous bulletins, including on June 10 and July 9. The pattern of unverified claims from the IRGC continues, with no independent evidence of damage or casualties.
