Iran carried out missile and drone strikes on US facilities in several Middle Eastern countries, including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) described the attacks as retaliatory. According to Fars News Agency, one person was killed in Abu Dhabi. Explosions were reported in Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Abu Dhabi, while Bahrain confirmed a missile strike on a US Navy Fifth Fleet command center.

The UAE condemned the assault as a clear violation of national sovereignty and international law, asserting its right to retaliate. Bahrain’s Interior Ministry issued an emergency alert and instructed residents to move to safe locations. The attacks followed joint US-Israeli strikes on Iran, which triggered emergency sirens in Bahrain. Authorities in Bahrain activated security measures and urged calm among citizens.

A Qatari official said two Iranian missiles were intercepted, and Kuwait also sounded warning sirens. The United States had recently withdrawn hundreds of troops from bases in Qatar and Bahrain amid rising tensions with Iran.
