Following US strikes targeting civilian infrastructure across Iran, the Islamic Republic on Friday (local time) launched a series of retaliatory military operations targeting US naval and military assets across the Gulf region, including in Qatar, Kuwait, Jordan, Oman and Syria, with the country's armed forces and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps
(IRGC) separately announcing strikes under Tehran's ongoing military campaigns.
According to statements carried by the Iranian state broadcaster Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB), Iran's Army and the IRGC said the operations were conducted in response to recent US attacks on Iranian territory and military personnel.
