Iran launched retaliatory attacks on Gulf nations on June 11 (local time) in response to U.S. airstrikes that have continued for two consecutive days.
According to foreign media outlets including Reuters, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) carried out attacks against 18 U.S. military bases across the Middle East on this day.
For the second straight day, following yesterday's actions, Iran fired missiles and launched drones toward the U.S. 5th Fleet base in Bahrain.
Iran also announced that it struck military radar facilities at a U.S. Air Force base in Harir, northern Iraq, on the same day.
The state-run Iranian news outlet Nour News also reported that Iranian forces shelled U.S. vessels within the Strait of Hormuz.
This latest attack by Iran occurred approximately three hours after the U.S. military announced the resumption of airstrikes against Iran earlier this morning.
Tensions are escalating as Iran announced today, the second day of the armed conflict, that it would fully close the Strait of Hormuz and prohibit the passage of all vessels, including oil tankers and merchant ships.
