In a statement released on Saturday, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said the latest phase of its operation involved large-scale, coordinated strikes using new-generation missiles and drones against US positions in the region.

According to the statement, one of the primary targets was the Al Dhafra Air Base in the United Arab Emirates, The Caspian Post reports, citing Al Jazeera.

The IRGC claimed that precision missiles and drones struck key installations at the base, claiming the attack destroyed an advanced early-warning radar system, hangars used for maintaining MQ-9 drones, and facilities associated with US reconnaissance aircraft, including the U-2.

The IRGC also reported carrying out heavy missile strikes on the Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait. According to the statement, cruise and ballistic missiles damaged the base’s radar systems, fuel storage facilities, and two runways used by US aircraft.
