JAKARTA - The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of Iran launched an attack on two US military bases in Kuwait on Monday morning.
In its statement, the IRGC claimed to have "completely destroyed" fuel tanks and Patriot air defense systems at Ali Al-Salem Air Base.
The IRGC also claimed to have destroyed the FPS strategic radar system at Ahmed Al-Jaber Air Base.
According to the IRGC, the attack was carried out by their air force in the third phase of an operation called "an eye for an eye".
The military operation, according to the IRGC, was a response to the US military action against Iran and is still ongoing.
As reported by ANTARA from Anadolu, Monday, July 13, the IRGC warned the United States not to increase its involvement in the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran has insisted it will not allow foreign military interference to continue in the strategic shipping lane.
The statement was made shortly before the United States Central Command (CENTCOM) announced the end of the latest wave of military attacks against Iran.
Tensions in the region have escalated in recent days following a tit-for-tat between the United States and Iran.
On Sunday, Iran said it had attacked US military facilities in Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Jordan, and Oman in response to Washington's attacks on targets in Iranian territory.
Meanwhile, CENTCOM said the latest US attack aimed to further weaken Iran's ability to attack civilian sailors and merchant vessels crossing the Strait of Hormuz.
In a separate statement, CENTCOM said the operation was complete and hit dozens of targets in multiple locations using precision-guided munitions.
