In its response to the latest US attacks, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it had struck US maritime surveillance radar sites in Oman as well as targets in Kuwait and Bahrain. It also claims to have attacked a US special operations command centre at al-Tanf in Syria.
Syria has not commented on the claim. Centcom said in a post on X that no US troops in the region had recently been killed or captured.
Kuwaiti authorities said Iranian strikes had hit power generation and water desalination stations, and Kuwait’s army said several personnel were wounded as a result of Iranian drones targeting facilities and camps on Friday morning.

Power facilities and desalination pumps hit in Iran’s Jask, says Iranian media
Aljazeera July 17, 2026
We now have further information on the missile strikes targeting the city of Jask that we reported earlier.
Iranian media say that electricity facilities and desalination pumps have been hit during the attack in Hormozgan province.
A deputy to the Hormozgan governor said US rockets struck pumps on the dock of the coastal Bunji village, in Jask County, cutting drinking water supplies to several villages in the area.
An official in Hormozgan told the Mehr news agency: “We are assessing the damage and working to restore drinking water to areas that were cut off due to last night’s attacks.”
