Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has carried out a fifth round of attacks on US military installations in Oman and Bahrain. According to an IRGC statement, the strikes targeted an FPS long-range air radar and a ship detection radar in Oman, both of which were destroyed. The attacks involved missiles and drones and also hit US military facilities and infrastructure in Juffair, Bahrain.

The IRGC described the operation as a retaliatory action and warned that the only way to keep the Strait of Hormuz open to navigation is to end what it called aggressive US military interference in the region. The statement emphasized respect for the sovereignty of coastal nations over their territorial waters.

Iran further cautioned that continued US involvement in the Strait of Hormuz could trigger a larger crisis in the global oil and gas sector, underscoring the potential for escalating regional tensions.
