Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has warned countries hosting US military forces to prepare for a “corresponding response”.

The IRGC urged those countries to activate their civil defence units to protect civilians and move them away from potential military targets, claiming their territories are being used as launchpads for attacks against Iran, The Caspian Post reports, citing Al Jazeera.

According to the Tasnim report, the IRGC Ground Forces used drones and missiles to strike the US military logistics hub at Camp Arifjan in Kuwait, claiming the attack caused casualties among US personnel stationed there.

The IRGC also claimed it targeted the US Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait, saying the operation disabled the base’s radar systems and destroyed a weapons maintenance hangar and a drone facility.
