Sirens wailed over Bahrain at least three times on Thursday as the Gulf edged back toward open war. The US military's Central Command confirmed it had struck 90 targets across Iran, releasing footage of runways cratered and missile launchers destroyed. Hours earlier, President Donald Trump had declared that Iranian attacks on shipping in the Strait of Hormuz had already killed the ceasefire — and threatened worse to come if Tehran did not stand down. Iran did not stand down.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps fired ballistic missiles and drones at US bases and allies across the region. Kuwait's military intercepted three ballistic missiles, a cruise missile and ten drones, though falling debris still wounded one person. Bahrain, home to the US Navy's 5th Fleet, shot down incoming fire. Jordan, where American troops and aircraft are stationed, intercepted all projectiles directed at it, government spokesman Mohammad al-Momani confirmed.

Qatar also reported missiles targeting its territory, though no damage was immediately announced. Inside Iran, the two days of American strikes killed at least 14 people and wounded 78 more, most of them members of the armed forces, according to the Health Ministry. An Iranian official separately accused the US of hitting the area around the country's only nuclear power plant — a claim that, if confirmed, would mark a dramatic escalation. Meanwhile, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei — killed in the opening strikes of the conflict — was buried Friday in his hometown of Mashhad after days of public mourning.
