TEHRAN, (PIC)

The US military announced, at dawn on Sunday, the launching of new
airstrikes on Iran, which responded by bombing US sites in Gulf countries
and Jordan.

The US Central Command (CENTCOM) said, it completed the eighth consecutive
night of strikes against Iran, announcing the targeting of Iranian
surveillance and air defense facilities and storage sites for missiles and
drones. It added, “We targeted forces affiliated with the Revolutionary
Guard that had launched attacks against US military personnel in Jordan.”

The Tasnim News Agency, which is affiliated with the Iranian Revolutionary
Guard corps, reported that the US military targeted a site near Shadegan
near the Iraqi border.

Iranian state television said early today, Sunday, citing a military
statement, that the Iranian military had launched an attack with drones
targeting US military assets and equipment in the Al-Udairi camp and the
Ali Al-Salem Air Base in Kuwait.

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard said it shot down an MQ-9 drone in the
airspace of the city of Ahvaz in southwestern the country.

The Kuwaiti military announced that its air defenses confronted hostile
missile and drone attacks. Iranian media reported that Tehran targeted US
military assets in two bases inside Kuwait.

The commander of the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, Ali Abdollahi,
threatened a “destructive” response to any further aggression, stressing
that Iran will confront what he described as policies of “hegemony and
bullying.”

The US Central Command had announced, Saturday, the killing of two members
of the US forces and the loss of another as a result of Iranian strikes on
Jordan, in the midst of the exchange of attacks between Washington and
Tehran.

Iran launched, yesterday, more attacks on Gulf countries and Jordan, while
the Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei threatened in a written message to
teach the United States “unforgettable lessons,” stressing that the
signature of US President Donald Trump is “worthless and void.”
