Tensions in the Persian Gulf have sharply escalated following reports of attacks targeting U.S. military installations across the region.
Iranian state television, citing military sources, announced that Iran had launched operations against American bases in several Gulf countries. The reports triggered immediate security alerts throughout the region, with local authorities urging residents to remain indoors and avoid military zones.
According to early reports from Reuters, a large explosion was heard in Abu Dhabi, while the United Arab Emirates reportedly moved to close its airspace as a precaution.
Regional sources claimed that the Al Dhafra Air Base was targeted by Iranian ballistic missiles, with witnesses describing multiple large explosions in the surrounding area.
Meanwhile, in Manama, reports emerged of smoke rising over the Al Jufair district, home to the U.S. Navy’s Fifth Fleet headquarters, following what local media described as a suspected Iranian strike.
Authorities in Qatar also issued emergency warnings. Qatar’s Interior Ministry urged citizens and residents to shelter in place after reports that a Patriot missile defense system intercepted a projectile allegedly aimed at the Al Udeid Air Base. Officials later confirmed that Qatar’s airspace had been temporarily closed.
The situation remains highly fluid, with governments across the Gulf region monitoring developments closely amid fears that the confrontation could widen further.
