Iranian news channels claim a fresh wave of drone and missile attacks have targeted American military bases in the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, resulting in multiple explosions.
Amid the wider regional conflict that escalated following recent US and Israeli military action against Iranian territory, Iranian news sources are circulating reports of fresh attacks on American military installations in the Persian Gulf.
According to خبرفورینیوز | اخبار جنگ | حمله امریکا, a Persian-language channel focused on war updates, there have been missile and drone attacks on US interests in the UAE. Relying on reports from Sabereen News—a network heavily aligned with Iran-backed militias—the channel claims that US bases in the United Arab Emirates were targeted by Iranian drones and missiles, resulting in explosions at the facilities.
The state-aligned Iranian channel فارس بینالملل و سیاست خارجی reported parallel strikes targeting American troops in neighboring Saudi Arabia. Citing unnamed Arab sources, the channel stated that an American base in Saudi Arabia was the target of drone and missile attacks and that explosions occurred within the compound.
Both channels rely on secondary or unnamed sources (Sabereen News and anonymous Arab sources) to assert the strikes on US bases. Khabar Fori News claims Fars News corroborated the UAE strikes, but the provided Fars News message exclusively discusses strikes in Saudi Arabia. The framing reflects the standard posture of Iranian state and paramilitary media in broadcasting strikes against US targets.
