Iranian Missile Strike Targets US Tanker in Bahrain

Reuters, citing two sources familiar with the matter, reported on Monday that a US-flagged cargo tanker was struck by missiles while docked at a Bahraini port.

The sources indicated that the strike occurred while the tanker was unloading operations, without providing further details on the extent of the damage or any casualties.

This attack comes amid escalating tensions between the United States and Iran, which in recent weeks have included several tit-for-tat attacks on US and Israeli bases and facilities in the Gulf and occupied Palestine.
