> The IRGC said six drones targeted an air-defense radar facility at the Al-Rifaa helicopter base.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it attacked a U.S. military facility in Bahrain with six drones, identifying an American air-defense radar installation at the Al-Rifaa helicopter base as the target.

The Guard described the operation as a response to what it called U.S. “hostile” actions. Its claim identifies a specific radar site within the base, framing the target as an air-defense installation. The announcement concerns a U.S. military asset outside the United States and directly links the operation to Washington.

Iran has also ruled out reaching an agreement with Washington through limits on its nuclear enrichment. Iran’s parliament speaker said a path to a deal would remain open if the United States accepted Iran’s terms. That position rejects enrichment restrictions as a route to an agreement while leaving a deal conditional on U.S. acceptance.

For U.S. readers, the IRGC’s claim and the nuclear comments link the reported operation in Bahrain to the dispute over Iran’s nuclear program. The developments raise immediate geopolitical and market-risk concerns, with the U.S. military presence in Bahrain and Iran’s terms for a nuclear deal both in focus.
