Iran-US war latest: Tehran says ‘blind strikes’ won’t dent Hormuz control after Trump threatens more attacks – UK Times

Authorities in Bahrain said this morning that they intercepted several Iranian attacks.

The interior ministry said the attacks damaged a residential building but caused no deaths.

Explosions were heard early this morning in the coastal Iranian city of Sirik.

State television reported that projectiles had hit a telecommunications tower in Tahrouyi village.

The news agency Fars reported that an explosion was also heard at Misin village on Qeshm Island in southern Iran.

The naval command of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said that the US “blind strikes” on Sirik did not resolve Iran’s control over the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran and the US continued their attacks in the Gulf as each accused the other of violating an interim deal signed less than two weeks ago to end their four-month-old war.

“America’s blind strikes on Sirik will not undermine our control over the Strait. But our strikes against violators serve as a reminder to other vessels of the proper route for safe passage,” the Guard posted on X.

“As for US bases in the region, that is a separate matter. They will experience hell in the days ahead.”

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said its naval and aerospace forces carried out a joint missile and drone operation targeting military sites in Kuwait and Bahrain.

The Guard said the strikes were in response to US attacks on Iranian coastal positions. It warned that further violations would receive a “crushing response.
