Iran Launches Strikes on Sites in Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain

Iran’s military said on Thursday that it had launched drone strikes on sites in Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain, describing the action as a response to earlier US strikes.

According to state media, the operation was part of what the army called a continuation of attacks by the Islamic Republic of Iran’s military on US bases across the region.

In its account of the strikes, the army said it used a large number of one way attack drones to hit a Patriot missile interceptor system in Kuwait, an early warning system in Qatar and fuel storage tanks in Bahrain.
