Seven ballistic missiles strike Bahrain and Kuwait

US says Iran fired seven ballistic missiles toward Kuwait, Bahrain US forces ​intercepted multiple Iranian ballistic missiles ​and drones launched toward the Strait of Hormuz and the Gulf, ​Central ‌Command has said. Iran ⁠fired seven ballistic missiles toward ‌Kuwait and Bahrain hours after CENTCOM ⁠shot down four Iranian one-way attack drones that were ​launched toward the ‌Strait of Hormuz, the statement said. US forces subsequently struck Iranian coastal surveillance radar sites in ​Goruk and on Qeshm ​Island, it said. CENTCOM said ​that initial assessments indicate

six of the missiles launched by Iran were intercepted and ⁠a seventh did not reach its ⁠intended target. However Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said they hit “enemy bases” in the Gulf. “Following the invasion of the child-killing and terrorist US army into Sirik and Qeshm Island, enemy bases in the region were hit by aerial missiles,” state broadcaster IRIB reported, quoting the Guards.
