Iran appears to have retaliated. Some media outlets are reporting that Iran fired dozens of missiles and drones at Israel. Nour News reported that Iran fired dozens of ballistic missiles. Mehr News Agency reported that the missiles were aimed at Israel and targeted all of Palestine. Iran’s English-language news agency Press TV reported that Iran fired about 75 missiles.
However, it is initially believed that Iran attacked US bases in the Gulf countries. Iran targeted US bases in Bahrain, Abu Dhabi and Qatar. Explosions took place in those areas today. Bahrain today asked its citizens to go to safe areas. Iran launched attacks in retaliation for the US attacks. However, Qatar announced today that it had intercepted two missiles. Qatari officials said that the missiles that entered their country’s airspace were shot down.
