NEW DELHI, Mar 28: Iran claimed that it struck two US Army “hideouts” in Dubai on Saturday as the West Asia conflict continued unabated on the 29th day.
Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps carried out precise missiles and drone strikes on these “hideouts” that had more than 500 US Army personnel. The spokesperson claimed that the ambulances in Dubai were busy for hours transferring the dead and wounded Americans.
The spokesperson added, “Trump and the commanders of the US Army must have fully understood that the region will turn into a graveyard for American soldiers, and they will have no choice but to surrender to the divine will of the heroic people and the brave warriors of Islam.”
However, US Central Command has fact-checked this claim and stated that no US personnel have been attacked in Dubai. “The Iranian regime is manufacturing lies on social media to hide the reality that their military capabilities are undeniably overwhelmed and degraded,” the official account of the US Central Command wrote on X.
The Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian warned Gulf countries against supporting the US-Israel alliance. He warned the countries to not allow the US and Israel to use their lands to strike Iran if they want to ensure development and security in their nation. “We have said many times that Iran doesn’t carry out pre-emptive attacks, but we will retaliate strongly if our infrastructure or economic centers are targeted,” Pezeshkian said in a post on
Kuwait International Airport was struck by multiple drone attacks that damaged its radar system; however, no casualties were reported. Kuwait’s Civil Aviation Authority spokesperson later said the attacks were carried out by Iran, its proxies, and the armed factions it supports.
Israel also struck Iran’s nuclear facilities hours after threatening to “escalate and expand” its campaign against Tehran on Friday. Iran vowed to retaliate and struck a base in Saudi Arabia, wounding US service members and damaging planes.
Giving a breakthrough, Iran on Saturday agreed to allow humanitarian aid and agricultural shipments through the Strait of Hormuz in response to a UN request. Ali Bahreini, the country’s ambassador to the United Nations in Geneva, said Iran agreed to “facilitate and expedite” such movement. The vital waterway usually handles a fifth of the world’s oil shipments and nearly a third of the world’s fertilizer trade. While markets and governments have largely focused on blocked oil and natural gas supplies, restrictions on fertilizer ingredients and trade threaten farming and food security worldwide.
“This measure reflects Iran’s continued commitment to supporting humanitarian efforts and ensuring that essential aid reaches those in need without delay,” Bahreini said on the social platform
