IRGC and Army attacked US bases in the region

IRGC and Army attacked US bases in the region
Story summary

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the Islamic Republic of Iran Army, in response to what was described as the “overnight aggression of the U.S. Army,” carried out a series of missile and drone operations named “Nasr” and “Sa’eqeh” against U.S. bases in the region. These operations, conducted in several waves and simultaneously, targeted U.S. bases in Bahrain, Kuwait, and Jordan.

  • In the third wave of the “Nasr 2” operation, under the code “Ya Zayn al-Abidin (a.s.),” the IRGC simultaneously targeted Sheikh Isa Base in Bahrain and Ali al-Salem Base in Kuwait.
  • In Operation Nasr 2, weapons storage hangars, as well as parts of vessels and military aircraft, were destroyed at Sheikh Isa Base.
  • At the same time in Operation Nasr 2, the deployment ramp for MQ-9 Reaper drones at Ali al-Salem Base was targeted.
  • Following the attack on Ali al-Salem Base, several MQ-9 Reaper drones were destroyed or damaged.
  • The Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran, continuing their response to the “aggressions of the U.S. Army,” targeted a series of U.S. command, logistics, air defense, and air force centers in West Asia.
  • The targets were described as “the most important support and command infrastructure for the American terrorists’ operations in the region.”
  • Missile and drone operations were carried out against U.S. bases in Bahrain, Kuwait, and Jordan.
  • These operations were conducted in response to the “overnight aggression of the U.S. Army.”. Coverage difference: Shargh placed greater emphasis on the details of Operation Nasr 2, including the precise targets struck at Sheikh Isa and Ali al-Salem bases and the types of destroyed equipment. By contrast, Mehr News referred to the geographic scope of the operations (from Bahrain to Jordan) and the general nature of the “successive waves,” providing fewer details about each operation. Both outlets cited the “aggressions of the U.S. Army” as the reason for these operations.
