Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said it had attacked a US military base in Bahrain in retaliation for "hostile US actions", Iran's Fars news agency reported. The Revolutionary Guards said they had launched six drones targeting a US air-defence radar at the Al-Rifaa helicopter base in Bahrain, Iranian state-run Press TV reported. There was no immediate confirmation from US or Bahraini authorities.
Bahrain, home to the US Navy's Fifth Fleet, urged citizens and residents to remain calm and proceed to the nearest safe location, the interior ministry said. It did not provide further details on the threats. Two days earlier the Revolutionary Guards said they had attacked a US early-warning radar in Bahrain.
The US military denied this, saying it had intercepted two Iranian drones without any damage.
