Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed on Sunday that it had targeted a US radar defense site at Al Riffa Air Base in Bahrain with six drones, according to state media. There were no claims or details of the drones having caused damage. The report comes after Bahrain’s Interior Ministry issued repeated warnings hours earlier about a potential threat, without specifying its nature, and urged residents to seek shelter. The ministry called on citizens and residents to remain calm, proceed to "the nearest safe location" and follow updates through official channels. In a statement carried by state-run broadcaster IRIB, the IRGC said the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, mentioning what it called Washington’s "failure" to escort ships through the waterway. It warned that "any US aggression would be met with an even harsher and more devastating response.” The developments come amid continued tensions between Iran and the US over navigation through the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic waterway for global energy and commodity supplies. US intel estimates Iran retains up to 2,500 missiles despite war damage: report Iran retains an estimated 1,500 to 2,500 missiles despite months of US and Israeli strikes targeting its weapons infrastructure, the Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday, citing US intelligence assessments. The findings challenge US President Donald Trump's claims that Tehran's military capabilities have been largely destroyed. Citing US officials, the newspaper said the assessment suggests Iran still possesses a substantial missile arsenal capable of threatening American and allied targets if fighting resumes. Officials said the assessment carried a low level of confidence because of difficulties determining how many missiles were ready for launch and how many remained in storage. The assessment carries a low level of confidence, said officials, largely because of difficulties determining how many missiles are ready for launch and how many remain in storage. However, the rebuilding process has proceeded at a slower pace than before the war, according to the report. Tehran also retains significant numbers of drones and short-range missiles, adding to its ability to strike targets across the region, the report said. Israeli military officials estimate that Iran possesses more than 1,500 ballistic missiles, although regional assessments differ, according to the report. Simone Ledeen, a former US deputy assistant secretary of defence for the Middle East, said even the lower estimate would suggest Iran had restored more than half of its prewar missile arsenal. Iran's missile and drone attacks have continued to expose vulnerabilities in US military installations, radar systems and early-warning infrastructure across the Middle East, according to the report. Washington has so far opted to maintain economic pressure on Tehran through sanctions and a blockade rather than launch another major military offensive. Gulf allies have warned against renewed fighting over fears of retaliatory Iranian strikes, while Israel continues to push for further military action, according to the newspaper. Two oil tankers hit mines, catch fire near Strait of Hormuz: Iran's Revolutionary Guard Two oil tankers struck naval mines and caught fire south of the Strait of Hormuz, Iran's IRGC Navy said early on Sunday. In a statement, the force said the vessels were attempting to pass through the waterway undetected along what it called an unauthorised route, with their navigation and automatic identification systems switched off. The Iranian naval force said the mine strikes triggered explosions and large fires aboard the tankers. The statement did not identify the vessels or provide information about possible casualties. Iran's Revolutionary Guard warns France against Israeli 'false flag' trap over cyberattack allegations Iran's IRGC warned France on Saturday against falling into an Israeli "false flag" trap after Paris accused an Iranian cyber unit of attacking supermarket refrigeration systems. Revolutionary Guard spokesman Hossein Mohebbi dismissed the allegations as "ridiculous," accusing Israel of using them to fuel hostility toward Iran and rally European support. "Paris should beware of the Zionist regime's false flag trap," Mohebbi wrote on US social media platform X. He also claimed that, unlike the US and Israel, the Revolutionary Guard does not include civilians among its targets. Iraqi premier orders judicial referrals, dismissals in fuel smuggling case Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi dismissed nine security and administrative officials on Saturday and ordered that all suspects in a fuel smuggling case in central Babil province be referred to the judiciary, the state-run Iraqi News Agency (INA) reported. Al-Zaidi chaired an emergency security meeting to review the findings of a committee investigating smuggling in Jurf al-Nasr, in northern Babil, armed forces spokesperson Sabah al-Numan told INA. Al-Numan said the committee corroborated a federal intelligence report on fuel smuggling, confirmed the presence of oil refineries and documented instances of tampering. Those dismissed included Babil’s police chief, the northern Babil police director and the provincial directors of the Interior Ministry’s intelligence and counterterrorism service, the National Security Service, the Defence Ministry’s intelligence and security service, and the intelligence service. Other officials removed were Babil’s Popular Mobilization Forces commander, the commander of the Interior Ministry’s 6th Energy Police Brigade and the director of the Oil Ministry’s Oil Pipelines Company. Al-Zaidi ordered provincial operations and police commanders, as well as security and intelligence chiefs, to take responsibility for oil smuggling in their jurisdictions. He demanded tighter oversight and security measures, and said officials who failed to carry out their duties would be held accountable. “There will not be an inch of Iraq where smuggling is allowed to continue, from Zakho to Basra,” he said.
