A new report indicates that Iran fired Fateh-110 ballistic missiles at the U.S. Fifth Fleet base in Bahrain, adding to earlier reports of attacks on the base. The report follows a previous bulletin at 18:51 Jerusalem about Fateh-110 launches and sirens in Bahrain. No confirmation of impacts or casualties yet.
A new report, published at 18:53 Jerusalem, confirms that Iran used Fateh-110 ballistic missiles in its attack on the U.S. Fifth Fleet base in Bahrain. This follows an initial bulletin at 18:51 Jerusalem that reported the launches based on Israeli journalists Hananel Aviv and Sapir Lipkin, and a series of earlier reports from 12:29 Jerusalem that had already indicated the use of Fateh-110 missiles. The new report, which has not been independently verified, adds further specificity to the missile type.
The desk has been tracking the attack since 12:29 Jerusalem, when a sequence of reports began: sirens activated in Bahrain, multiple explosions reported, and footage showing launches from Iran's Fars province. At 12:29, we reported that Fateh-110 missiles were used, based on the same Israeli journalists. By 18:51, the initial bulletin framed the attack as a launch of Fateh-110 missiles toward the base. The current report at 18:53 provides additional confirmation of the missile type, though the source remains a single channel.
The attack is part of a broader exchange between Iran and the United States in the Gulf region. As The Zioneer has reported over the past weeks, Iran has struck the U.S. Fifth Fleet in Bahrain multiple times, including with suicide drones and ballistic missiles, and U.S. officials have dismissed some of Iran's claims of damage. Earlier reports of Patriot interceptions and footage of explosions remain unconfirmed by official sources.
No impacts or casualties have been confirmed. The new report has not been independently verified, and the source is not specified. Earlier reports of Patriot interceptions and footage of explosions remain unconfirmed by official sources.
