The Iranian Armed Forces have announced the execution of drone strikes targeting military bases located in Jordan and Bahrain.
According to the Operative Information Center-OMM, the Army of the Islamic Republic of Iran released an official statement confirming the operation.
The statement indicates that Iranian military forces utilized unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to strike the Al-Azraq military base in Jordan. Furthermore, the operation reportedly targeted several strategic facilities at the Sheikh Isa Air Base in Bahrain using "Arash"-type drones.
According to claims made by the Iranian military, the strikes resulted in damage to large equipment depots, covered areas, and maintenance centers for heavy aircraft. The military statement noted that the operation was dedicated to the residents of the country's southern regions, emphasizing a commitment to continue operations in honor of the nation's founding leaders and fallen commanders.
These developments occur amidst heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, a region where the United States maintains a significant military presence to support regional security and counter various threats. The presence of US military assets in countries like Jordan and Bahrain is part of long-standing defense cooperation agreements aimed at maintaining stability in the Persian Gulf and the broader Levant region.
