It further alleged that the US military had directed the vessels onto an &#8220;unsafe route.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, the IRGC claimed it had destroyed key military assets at Kuwait&#8217;s Ahmad Al Jaber Air Base, including an early warning radar, missile defense radar, FPS-117 radar, Patriot air defense system, and satellite communications equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Iranian military said the attacks are part of preparations for what it described as &#8220;more decisive and more destructive&#8221; missile and drone operations in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The claims made by both the United States and Iran could not be independently verified. The latest developments come amid rapidly rising regional tensions and continued military exchanges between the two sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
