Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claims it carried out missile strikes against Amazon-linked infrastructure in Bahrain. Multiple outlets report that the IRGC statement, circulated through Iran’s state news agency IRNA, says the force used several cruise missiles and “attacked and destroyed” Amazon’s central or main data infrastructure in the kingdom. Some reports add that the IRGC claims it also targeted U.S. air defence systems in Bahrain, though they do not provide independent confirmation.
Bahraini, U.S. and Amazon officials are reported as having not responded so far, and at least one outlet notes Bahrain has not confirmed the claim. One report also links the IRGC claim to broader tensions, describing it as retaliation for recent U.S. strikes on Iranian sites, though that attribution is not corroborated by other sources in the provided material.
The accounts are based primarily on the IRGC statement itself, and the extent of damage and the precise targets described by Iranian officials remain unverified by authorities in Bahrain and the companies named.
