Darwin, 28 February:

Iran has launched long-range missile attacks targeting several U.S. military bases across the Middle East, including installations in Gulf region countries such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates.

Reports say explosions were heard in multiple locations and air defense systems were activated to intercept incoming missiles.

According to international reports:
Iranian missiles struck at least five key U.S. bases in the region, including Qatar’s Al-Udeid Air Base and the U.S. Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain. (Tehran Times)

Explosions were also reported in parts of Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, and Dubai as air defenses engaged the incoming missiles.

Gulf states’ airspaces were temporarily closed, and residents were warned to take shelter as alerts sounded across several countries. (The Washington Post)

This escalation reportedly comes as retaliation after coordinated U.S. and Israeli air operations against Iranian targets, which prompted a swift Iranian response under a named military operation.

The situation remains fluid and tense, with diplomatic channels under pressure and global concerns about a wider conflict continuing to rise. (Times of India)
