10-06-2026 08:25 AM


Ammon News - Iran's ⁠Revolutionary Guards ​said they had ​attacked the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain ​with ‌drones ⁠in response to US ‌strikes on areas in ⁠southern Iran earlier on Wednesday, state ​media reported, adding ‌that clashes were continuing.

In a statement, the ‌Guards warned of "a ​more severe response" if what they described as ​US "aggression" continued.

The Guards ​said the ​US strikes damaged ​a telecommunications tower and two water tanks in the Iranian ⁠port town of Sirik.

The US military said late Tuesday that it had "completed" its retaliatory strikes against Iran over the downing of an attack helicopter.

US Central Command (CENTCOM), which oversees American forces in the Middle East, said on X that it had "completed self-defense strikes against Iran."

"CENTCOM forces struck Iranian air defense, ground control stations, and surveillance radar sites near the Strait of Hormuz with precision munitions from US Air Force and Navy fighter jets," the post said.
