Iran yesterday boasted that it had destroyed an Amazon data hub in Bahrain as Tehran ramps up strikes in its war with the US.
The Revolutionary Guard said it launched a wave of drones at the base, which it claimed was being used as a launchpad for American attacks.
The force claimed it had ‘attacked and destroyed the central data infrastructure of the American company Amazon in Bahrain with several cruise missiles’, according to state media.

It comes as Iranian president Masoud Pezeshkian said on Monday that Tehran was in a ‘full-scale’ war with the US, as Donald Trump unleashed a tenth successive night of strikes.
The US President said Iran would pay ‘many times over’ for killing American soldiers after multiple servicemen died in action over the weekend.
Meanwhile, Tehran attacked a tanker in the Strait of Hormuz this morning, forcing its crew to abandon the ship.
The US airstrikes haven't compelled Iran to loosen its grip on the strait, through which about a fifth of all crude oil and natural gas traded once passed in peacetime.
Even as the two nations inch closer to all-out war again, Tehran's interior minister traveled to Pakistan, a key mediator in the conflict, for talks.
However, it remains unclear just what new deal could be reached to end the fighting.

The interim deal signed last month that was meant to end the fighting has crumbled.
Shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has largely stalled. And as fighting intensifies, both sides have targeted civilian infrastructure relied on by millions of people.
'Iran and groups supportive of Iran may target other US interests overseas or at locations associated with the United States and Americans throughout the world,' the US State Department said in a new warning to Americans.
Has this conflict escalated more than you expected?
Yes - It has gone further than I thought it would
No - This level of escalation was expected
The escalation has pushed oil prices higher in recent weeks. Benchmark Brent crude traded Tuesday above $88 a barrel and regular gasoline in the US climbed to an average of $4 a gallon, keeping pressure on Americans' wallets ahead of midterm elections this fall.
Meanwhile, the US military identified two soldiers who were killed in Jordan in attacks that left a third person missing.
Separately, the military confirmed another death in Iraq on Saturday during the 'controlled detonation' of a downed Iranian drone.
Mr Trump took to social media yesterday to warn that 'Every time Iran kills an American Soldier they will pay for that killing many times over!'
The US President is planning to attend a ceremony tonight at Dover Air Force Base, where at least one service member's remains were due to arrive.
The US military's Central Command (CENTCOM) said today that it had targeted 'Iranian military command centres, maritime capabilities, missile and drone launch sites and air defence systems'.
It released more footage of bombings that targeted sites in Iran.
'American forces remain postured and prepared to hold Iran accountable for unwarranted aggression toward civilian mariners seeking to freely and openly transit the strait,' the command said.
However, traffic through the strait has slowed to a crawl with the latest violence.
The British military's United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations centre said a tanker came under attack this morning in the strait off Oman, forcing the crew to abandon the vessel.
Iran's Revolutionary Guard claimed responsibility for the attack, as well as two other attacks on ships in the waterway yesterday.
The route around Oman has been the one the US military has encouraged ships to travel to avoid Iran's control.

US forces last week launched what the military said were precision strikes targeting Iranian military capabilities
Tehran also hit US-allied countries throughout the Middle East. Jordan's military said today that Iran had targeted it with five drones, all of which were shot down.
The Pentagon's chief spokesman said nearly 100 US service members have been injured since the US restarted strikes on July 7, and 96 per cent of them have returned to duty.
'The vast majority of injuries experienced were minor concussions,' Sean Parnell posted Monday on X in response to a New York Times report that the Pentagon has withheld information about troop injuries from Iranian strikes.
He denied that the Pentagon was hiding data about injuries.
However, the Defence Casualty Analysis System, the military's clearinghouse for reporting deaths and injuries in conflict, has not been updated as of last night with the latest attacks.
Yemen's Houthi rebels announced a maritime embargo against Saudi Arabia on Monday.
The Houthis, who are backed by Iran, said they would block shipping between the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden by targeting the Bab el-Mandeb - a maritime chokepoint between Yemen and the east coast of Africa - in response to an attack on Sanaa International Airport last week that they blamed on Saudi Arabia.
With the Strait of Hormuz blocked, Saudi Arabia has been relying on a pipeline to the Red Sea to get millions of barrels of oil out to market.
The Houthis earlier demonstrated their ability to disrupt shipping there when they targeted ships for months over the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, with more than 100 vessels attacked.
Saudi Arabia's military said it would keep the waterway open.
'All Houthi threats against transiting vessels will be dealt with swiftly and firmly, as such threats are a blatant violation of international law and fall under acts of maritime piracy,' said Major General Turki al-Malki, a Saudi military spokesman.
Pakistan has intensified diplomatic efforts in recent days to resuscitate the interim deal.
Iranian interior minister Eskandar Momeni arrived in Islamabad yesterday for two days of talks with prime minister Shehbaz Sharif and others.
On Sunday, American Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters that the US is still open to negotiating with Iran but that 'it has to be real'.
He said: 'If the door opens to diplomacy - if the guys that want to do something productive for Iran win and take control of that system, or take control of the negotiations - that'll be a very positive development.
'That's not where we are tonight, unfortunately.'
Iranian authorities on Sunday said at least 50 people have been killed and 517 wounded in the latest rounds of US strikes.
Some 17 US service members have been killed since the war began on February 28.

For now, I do think Baku is redeemable, which is why I think the way I do. UAE and Kuwait/Bahrain are lost causes though.

Trump says US ‘not finished at all’ with Iran

WASHINGTON: President Donald Trump said Tuesday the United States was far from finished with Iran and warned the next US military target could be an underground nuclear complex known as Pickaxe Mountain.
Pickaxe Mountain is a deeply buried nuclear site near Natanz where Western intelligence suspects Iran is building an undeclared enrichment facility.
“We’ll be hitting that area pretty soon, and very heavily,” Trump said, adding that he would not normally announce targets but “there’s not a thing they can do about it.”
Trump estimated it would take Iran more than 20 years to rebuild from current damage, addressing reporters during a White House meeting with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun.
“If we left right now, it would take Iran 20, 25 years to rebuild. Okay, and we’re not finished at all...we’re not leaving right now.”
Iran stepped up its strikes in the Middle East on Tuesday, two weeks after its war with the United States resumed, with Jordan, Kuwait and Bahrain coming under attack.

Think yanks will do a massive bombing campaign today including pickaxe and isfahan and claim victory and runaway with their tails between their legs, leaving regional countries to deal with the shitshow. Of course iran will also go berserk across the region and rightly so.

Wrong tree, bud. Desperate strawman disguised in nonsensical emotional outbursts is just as silly as your previous post.
Doesn't matter, don't care.
That stopped working in the 5th grade.

First thing Iran needs to do is the 100% destruction of all the hangars, structures, tents in all the regional US bases.

I think iran already established deterrence against the regional arab countries and arabs will probably change course moving forward, it would be counter productive to escalate even further once this is over hopefully.
