Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced Friday that it targeted a U.S. early warning radar system in Bahrain. This marks the first such claim of an attack on American military sites in a Gulf state since early September. According to state media, the IRGC stated the strike was retaliation for what it described as an aerial attack on a telecommunications tower in the city of Sirik, Hormozgan province, southern Iran. The incident occurs amid a relative lull in the conflict between Iran and the United States, which began with American and Israeli strikes on Iran on February 28 and has since expanded to other regional countries. Neither the United States nor Bahrain has yet commented on the IRGC's announcement.
