Iran¡¯s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)?said it targeted U.S. military sites in Bahrain and Kuwait on Wednesday after the U.S. launched a wave of military strikes on Iran in response to attacks on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz.

In the latest blow to the fragile ceasefire agreement, the IRGC said it carried out a joint missile and drone operation against key U.S. military sites in Bandar Salman, Bahrain¡¯s Fifth Naval District and Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait, and shot down a U.S. MQ-9 drone attempting to interfere in the operation.

Air raid sirens sounded in Bahrain and Kuwait, and the Kuwaiti army said ?air defenses were confronting ¡°hostile¡± missile and drone attacks.
