The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced that its naval and aerospace forces carried out a joint missile and drone operation between 02:00 and 03:00 local time, targeting eight U.S. sites, including Kuwait's Ali Al‑Salem Air Base and the U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain. The statement said the attacks were a response to what Tehran described as an earlier aggression against five Iranian coastal sites. The IRGC warned that any further violations of the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding on Strait of Hormuz traffic would be met with stronger force and could halt ongoing negotiations.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 IRGC Statement:
‘Dear noble people of the Islamic Iran: Your brave sons in the Naval and Aerospace Forces of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, during a joint missile and drone operation at 02:00-03:00 AM, targeted eight important U.S. targets, including Ali Al-Salem Airbase in Kuwait and the U.S. Navy’s 5th Fleet HQ in Bahrain.
The aggressor enemy, whose betrayal and violation of treaties are part of its nature, attacked early this morning five coastal sites in Iran under the pretext of confronting the IRGC Navy.
According to the Islamabad MoU, regarding traffic arrangements in the Strait of Hormuz with the Islamic Republic, from now on, violating ships will be dealt with with greater force than before, and any potential aggression by the enemy for any reason, even if it is like last night's attacks on unimportant targets, will have a devastating response.
The enemy must know that violating the ceasefire is contrary to Paragraph 1 of the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding and will lead to a complete halt in negotiations.’
