Iran’s Guards say targetted U.S. air base in Bahrain: state media

 Iran’s Revolutionary Guards targetted a United States air base in Bahrain, the Islamic republic’s elite force said in a statement carried on Tuesday (March 3, 2026) by the official IRNA news agency.

“The IRGC announced that… its naval forces carried out a large-scale drone and missile attack at dawn on the US air base in the Sheikh Isa area of Bahrain,” IRNA posted on Telegram, using the acronym for Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

The force said in its statement that 20 drones and three missiles were launched, “destroying the base’s main command headquarters,” without providing evidence.

Tehran’s latest claimed attack came after its military launched salvos across the Gulf region in retaliation for U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran that began on Saturday (February 27, 2026).
