Kuwait was also a target, despite no alerts. Iranian Army statement shortly.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Iranian Army in an official statement announces the following:

– Targeting a Patriot system, ammunition depots, and radar sites of the U.S. military in Kuwait, with drones.

– In a separate wave of drones, targeting the communications system and radar sites of the U.S. military in Bahrain.

(Footage of the launches was also released & attached to the statement)

—❗️🇮🇷/🇺🇸 NEW: In a second statement, the IRGC announces it targeted the fighter jet maintenance and repair hub at Al-Udeid Airbase in Qatar with ballistic missiles

They also announced that another violating vessel (a second one) was struck in the Strait of Hormuz.

@Middle_East_Spectator

Only no statement about the UAE yet.

It will be interesting to see what exactly was targeted there.

I think it’s also a possibility that alerts in the UAE were issued mistakingly due to targeting a vessel in the SoH, as we’ve seen this happen in the past too.

This wave against Qatar is bigger.

—❗️🇮🇷/🇺🇸/🇴🇲 BREAKING: In a surprise attack, the IRGC targeted the supply, logistics and refueling station of the U.S. Navy in Duqm, Oman – IRIB

The port of Duqm is the main logistics port for the U.S. Navy aircraft carriers.

—❗️🇰🇼/🇮🇷 BREAKING: Alerts in Kuwait for the first time tonight

@Middle_East_Spectator

—❗️🇮🇷/🇧🇭/🇶🇦 NEW: Additional explosions in Qatar and Bahrain

@Middle_East_Spectator

— NOTE: I believe the UAE alerts were most likely triggered by the attack on the U.S. logistics port in Oman (same trajectory)

This would explain why the IRGC has not included the UAE in any of its statements so far, and why the all-clear in Abu Dhabi was given relatively fast.

—❗️🇶🇦/🇮🇷 BREAKING: Less than 10 minutes after the all-clear, Qatar has now issued a new missile alert
