BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 13. The US Central
Command (CENTCOM) has denied Tehran’s claim that an early-warning
radar in Bahrain had been destroyed.
The CENTCOM press office reported on its official page on the
social media platform X.
The command stated that two unmanned aerial vehicles launched by
Iran toward Bahrain were neutralized.
“The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) launched two
attack drones toward Bahrain. Both drones were shot down by US
forces. No one was injured, and no damage was caused as a result of
the incident,” the statement said.
Earlier, the IRGC announced that, in response to a US attack on
a telecommunications hub on the Iranian island of Sirik, it had
struck and destroyed a US Army early-warning radar system in
Bahrain.
The IRGC stated that this was a serious warning to the US, aimed
at putting an end to the illegal transport of oil through the
Strait of Hormuz.
