Bahrain said Saturday that Iran launched ballistic missiles and drones toward the kingdom and Kuwait, all of which were intercepted and destroyed by Bahrain’s air defense systems.
Bahrain’s General Command said Iran fired three ballistic missiles and several drones, which were successfully shot down by the Bahrain Defence Force before reaching their targets. The announcement came hours after U.S. Central Command said American forces intercepted Iranian ballistic missiles and drones launched toward Gulf Arab states and the Strait of Hormuz on Friday, while also striking several Iranian coastal surveillance radar sites in response.
