TEHRAN, April 01 (YPA) – The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced on Wednesday significant casualties among US forces following a series of military strikes targeting locations in the UAE and Bahrain, as part of what it described as the 89th wave of Operation ” True Promise 4.”

In the UAE, a statement from the IRGC’s Public Relations office confirmed the death of 37 US officers following an attack on a secret gathering site yesterday, noting that a large number of wounded were transported to local hospitals.

In Bahrain, the statement reported that a significant number of senior US Naval Unit officers were injured after a drone and ballistic missile strike targeted a site outside the Fifth Fleet’s perimeter in Manama. The injured were subsequently moved to city hospitals for treatment.

The IRGC specified that its naval forces conducted five large-scale operations using a combination of ballistic missiles, “Qadir” cruise missiles, and suicide drones. The attacks reportedly included the destruction of two early-warning radar systems in the UAE, the targeting of a “Chinook” helicopter maintenance center at the Al-Udeiri base, a strike on an Israeli-linked oil tanker in the Gulf, and an engagement with the “Abraham Lincoln” carrier strike group in the Indian Ocean.
