Iran strikes US bases in Kuwait and Bahrain as IRGC claims 18 targets hit in opening salvo

The IRGC says it struck 18 targets across three Gulf air bases in two waves, with the Iranian Army separately claiming drone hits on the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain. The claims originate entirely with Iranian state-aligned channels and have not been independently verified.
