Iran has launched missiles and drones against US military bases in Jordan, Kuwait and Bahrain, claiming to have targeted air defence systems, fuel storage facilities and radar installations in retaliation for American strikes on the Islamic Republic.
Iran's Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) said they fired two waves of ballistic missiles at a US air base in Jordan, while the Iranian army said it carried out drone attacks against US military facilities in Kuwait and Bahrain.
The IRGC said the strikes on Jordan were in response to what it described as an American attack near a children's cancer hospital in Iran. Separately, Tehran warned it would target infrastructure across the region if the United States carried out threats to attack Iranian infrastructure.
Earlier, the US military claimed to have ended its latest wave of strikes on Iran early Thursday, striking targets further north and around Tehran for the first time in this latest round of violence. Washington's forces also say they have hit a ship they accuse of trying to break their naval blockade on Iran.
Iranian state media reported that American strikes struck around Tehran, Qeshm Island and the southern port city of Chabahar, as well as, the northern Semnan province which holds Iran's ballistic missile production and space program.
