It further claimed that the strikes resulted in the elimination of several drones and the deaths of multiple pilots and flight crew members.IRNA further claimed that the Islamic Republic of Iran Army targeted radar installations and concentration points of American terrorist forces at the Sheikh Isa base in Bahrain with heavy volleys of destructive drones.The outlet mentioned that the Sheikh Isa Base in Bahrain serves as a key maintenance and repair centre for helicopters and drone components, as well as hosting reconnaissance aircraft.Citing the IRGC, it claimed that ballistic missiles also hit Camp Titin- a US Marine base in Jordan which resulted in troop casualties.As the situation rapidly evolves in the West Asia region, Bahrain’s Interior Ministry issued an alert of potential threat and urged citizens and residents to remain calm, proceed to the nearest safe location, and follow news through official channels for the protection of public safety.Meanwhile, Kuwait News Agency said that the country’s air defences are responding to Iranian drone attacks.It also reported that Jordan’s air defences intercepted 13 Iranian ballistic missiles.The latest slew of developments comes as Iran had vowed of a decisive response shortly after US President Donald Trump had said that Washington launched a fresh wave of strikes against Iranian targets near the Strait of Hormuz. They come after what Trump claimed was in retaliation for Iran attempting to add sea mines to the Strait.Trump added that any retaliation by Iran against the “very justified attack” will see a stronger response by Washington–however, also hinting that a much bigger attack against Tehran still remains in store.
