Iran's military announced on Thursday that it launched retaliatory missile and drone attacks against US military installations in Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates.
In a statement, the military specified that the offensive occurred in the early morning in the 31st wave of its Operation Seqeh (Lightning) in response to unprovoked aggressions by Americans that left several civilian casualties this week.
The agency details in the text that Iranian missiles and drones impacted the Ahmed al-Jaber air base in Kuwait, damaging communications systems and fighter jet hangars.
In addition, they also reached troop deployment areas and radar systems at Minhad Air Base in the United Arab Emirates.
The first of these facilities, according to the Army, is a major logistics and key support center for U.S. forces in West Asia, with a key role for air and surveillance operations in the region.
The second was described as a major center for air support and the transport of foreign troops. The Army had already promised a “devastating” response to the US attacks.
Accountability.
For its part, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) issued a statement in which it asserted that US leaders must be held accountable for their attacks on a wedding in which four people were killed.
In its message to the free nations of the world, the IGR emphasized that the US Central Command (Centcom) turned the celebration of a wedding ceremony into a day of mourning.
