Iran's Revolutionary Guards on Monday claimed strikes against Jordan, Bahrain and Kuwait, saying they targeted US military facilities.

Iran's official IRNA news agency, citing a series of statements by the Revolutionary Guards, said Iran had launched attacks targeting Prince Hassan Air Base in Jordan, a US drone command center in Bahrain and other air bases, including Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait.

Bahrain's Interior Ministry said on X that warning sirens had been activated, urging citizens and residents to remain calm, head to the nearest safe location and follow updates through official channels.

Kuwait's military also said its armed forces had intercepted hostile aerial targets within Kuwaiti airspace.

The military's General Staff said in a post on X, any explosions heard were the result of air defense systems intercepting hostile attacks and urged the public to follow safety instructions issued by the relevant authorities.

The Jordanian army said in a statement that its air defenses successfully intercepted four missiles launched from Iran, with no casualties or property damage reported.

The statement cited a military source as saying that the air defense systems intercepted and destroyed four missiles that entered Jordanian airspace from Iranian territory early on Monday, adding that the incident caused no injuries or material damage.
