US denies Iran strike on Bahrain radar; IRGC drones intercepted

Iran claimed it attacked a US early-warning radar in Bahrain in retaliation for an alleged air strike on a telecom tower in Hormozgan province, but the US military denied the claim, stating it intercepted two IRGC one-way attack drones with no damage. The incident marks a direct Iranian attempt to strike a US asset in the Gulf, though the denial and lack of damage suggest limited impact. This escalates US-Iran tensions in the Gulf, with potential implications for regional security and energy transit.
