A spokesperson for the IRGC’s Khatam al-Anbiya Headquarters says its forces have attacked Prince Sultan air base in Saudi Arabia and the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain using missiles and drones, Al Jazeera reports.

The group also claimed that US reconnaissance aircraft are stationed at Prince Sultan Air Base, which it said was later targeted with ballistic missiles, describing it as a key site for US military deployment and operations.

Separately, Houthi-linked news agency Almasirah said the command targeted the “Zionist Aerospace Industries Centre” near Ben Gurion Air Base using Arash-2 attack drones.

It added that it had carried out a “74th wave” of attacks against US bases in the region and targets in central and southern Israel, using what it described as new tactics and advanced systems.

The claims could not be independently verified, and there has been no immediate comment from US or Israeli officials.
