Explosions are heard in Bahrain, UAE, Qatar, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia

Reports are coming in of numerous explosions in Bahrain, Abu Dhabi (UAE), and Qatar: Iran is striking American bases across the region at this very moment.

This is reported by CNN.

The channel notes that American bases are located in all of these locations.

According to the information, several explosions were heard in Bahrain. Qatari authorities reported the interception of an Iranian missile.

In addition, Iranian ballistic missiles struck the Al Dhafra Air Base in the UAE.

There are also reports that Iran is attacking American facilities in Jordan. Explosions are also being heard in the Saudi Arabian capital, Riyadh.

As previously reported, Qatar, the UAE, and Bahrain have already closed their airspace.

As a reminder, earlier Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz stated that the country's Defense Forces had launched a preemptive strike against Iran. The operation is named "Lion's Roar." Both countries have closed their airspace. Later, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that the United States is also participating in the military operation against Iran. Iran, in turn, launched dozens of ballistic missiles at Israel. The IDF confirmed the launches; sirens are sounding across the country, and air defense systems are operating.
