Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has claimed it targeted and destroyed a US early-warning radar installation in Bahrain on November 13. Tehran described the operation as retaliation for an alleged US airstrike on a telecommunications tower in Sirik, southern Iran. The IRGC warned Washington against further military actions and threatened additional retaliation. However, US Central Command denied the radar was destroyed, stating that American forces intercepted two Iranian drones heading towards Bahrain without damage or injuries. The incident raises concerns about renewed military escalation and regional security, particularly around the strategically important Strait of Hormuz. (PC: Reuters)
