According to a map circulating on Telegram, Iranian retaliatory strikes on US-linked bases overnight July 15–16 hit confirmed targets in Kuwait, Bahrain, and Jordan. The map lists confirmed impacts at Ali al-Salem airbase and near the Kuwait–Iraq border in Kuwait, the Sheikh Isa Airbase in Bahrain, and the Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan. Unconfirmed impacts include the US Military Pier in Shuaiba, Kuwait, and a strike on a US Patriot launcher at Erbil airport in Iraq, which neither the IRGC nor Iranian Armed Forces have claimed.
The map, circulated on Telegram late Thursday, details the results of what it describes as Iranian retaliatory strikes against US-linked bases in the early hours of July 16. It distinguishes between confirmed and unconfirmed impacts, though the sourcing is unclear and the claims remain unverified by independent sources.
The Zioneer has reported on previous Iranian claims of strikes on US bases in the region. On July 9, the IRGC and Iranian military claimed to have struck US facilities in Kuwait, Bahrain, Jordan, and Qatar. A July 14 bulletin reported IRGC claims of strikes on a US military facility in Kuwait and a vessel near the Strait of Hormuz. The new map appears to be the most detailed geographic breakdown to date, covering a wider area and providing specific base names.
Several unconfirmed impacts remain, including the US Military Pier in Shuaiba and the strike on a Patriot launcher at Erbil airport. No official claim of responsibility has been issued for the Erbil strike, and the map's source is not independently verifiable. Confirmation of the impacts is pending from official US or host-nation sources.
