The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced the destruction of an American early warning radar station in Bahrain. As Interfax reports with reference to the Iranian agency Tasnim, the attack was a response to an attack against a communications tower in Iranian territory. The department emphasized that the incident serves as a warning about the need to stop aerial provocations and oil smuggling in the Strait of Hormuz, while threatening "unrestricted" actions if the violations are repeated.
