Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed responsibility for numerous attacks on US military sites in Kuwait, Jordan, and Bahrain on Saturday morning, according to Iranian state media outlets.

Sirens sounded early Saturday morning in Kuwait when drones targeted US ammunition stores and communication assets at Ali Al Salem Air Base, along with other installations, according to a statement from Kuwaiti Army forces, and Iranian state media.

Following these attacks, a fire reportedly broke out at a power generation and water desalination plant in Kuwait, as stated by the country’s Electricity, Water, and Renewable Energy Ministry. The ministry added that several power generation units were shut down and that efforts were ongoing to contain the fire and carry out repairs.

The Kuwait Fire Force later reported that firefighters and workers sustained injuries while responding to fires caused by the Iranian attacks.

In its subsequent statement claiming responsibility for the Kuwait attacks, the IRGC warned that countries hosting US forces should expect “corresponding responses” if their territory is used for attacks on Iran, as reported by the IRGC-linked Tasnim news agency.
