Unverified footage from Manama appears to show an impact in or near the Bahraini capital, following interceptions reported at roughly 05:30 Jerusalem time. The source of the projectile has not been stated.
New unverified footage from Manama appears to show an impact in or near the Bahraini capital, adding visual detail to what was earlier described as an unconfirmed impact in the same area. The previous bulletin on this thread, published at 03:30 Jerusalem, reported at least one interception over Manama at approximately 05:30 Jerusalem time alongside unconfirmed reports of an impact—this footage may provide the first visual confirmation of that event. The source of the inbound projectile has not been stated.
As The Zioneer documented at 04:37 Jerusalem, a larger multi-wave attack earlier in the night involved 19 explosions and a visual confirmation of an Iranian missile striking the US Fifth Fleet base in Bahrain (Naval Support Activity Bahrain). That article was preceded by a series of bulletins beginning at 03:30 Jerusalem: initial sirens and interceptions reported by a journalist on the ground (version 3), followed by loud explosions from Iranian drone strikes (version 4), then interceptions specifically in central Bahrain (version 5), explosions in central Manama (version 6), and finally a large explosion at 05:28 (version 7) and an interception over the capital (version 8). Throughout this thread, source quality evolved from a single journalist to multiple newsroom reports, though no official confirmation has yet been released.
The wider context includes extensive Iranian retaliatory strikes against US and Gulf targets, which The Zioneer has covered since the early hours. It is not yet clear whether this latest impact is connected to the earlier attack on the US Navy base or is a separate incident.
The footage remains unverified. No official confirmation has been released by Bahraini or US authorities regarding this specific impact.
