US-IRAN War. Ayatollah Khamenei killed. Iranian missiles and drones all over Middle East. Iran closes Strait of Hormuz

US air base in Bahrain reportedly destroyed - Iran state media​

published at 12:52​


Reports are emerging of an Iranian strike destroying a US air base in Bahrain.

Footage posted by the Fars news agency, affiliated with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), appears to show a wave of rockets exploding into distant targets.

It claims the IRGC's drone and missile attack destroyed a US command and staff building air base in Bahrain's Sheikh Isa region and caused fuel tanks to explode.

The US has not yet commented on the reported attacks.

Earlier, smoke could be seen billowing from a US-run naval base in Bahrain.

The US State Department has ordered American citizens to immediately leave Bahrain, along with a dozen other countries in the Middle East.

US has enough weapons stocked for 'forever' war, Trump says​

published at 13:59

President Donald Trump has taken to Truth Social to comment on US stocks of "medium and upper medium grade" munitions, adding that wars "can be fought 'forever'... using just these supplies".

"We have a virtually unlimited supply of these weapons. The United States is stocked, and ready to WIN, BIG!!!" Trump writes, posting just before midnight in Washington DC (05:00 GMT).

In his latest remarks, he also accuses his predecessor Joe Biden of providing Ukraine with "so much of the super high end" US weapons.

At the end of his four-year term, Biden had allowed Ukraine to use powerful long-range ATACMS missiles, capable of striking up to 190 miles (300km).

US death toll rises as war with Iran enters day three​

USA TODAY
March 2, 2026, 5:54 p.m. ET

As the war between the United States and Iran enters its third day, the death toll of American servicemen continues to rise, now reaching six deaths as Operation Epic Fury continues in the region.

The updated toll was announced by the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) on Monday, March 2, in a post on X.

“U.S. forces recently recovered the remains of two previously unaccounted for service members from a facility that was struck during Iran's initial attacks in the region,” CENTCOM said.

Also on Monday, three American fighter aircraft crashed in Kuwait with crews surviving unscathed and in stable condition, the Pentagon said.

Donald Trump has criticised Keir Starmer for his role in the US attacks on Iran.

Speaking to the Sun, Trump says the prime minister "has not been helpful. I never thought I’d see that. I never thought I’d see that from the UK."

In a telephone interview, Trump adds: "It's very sad to see that the relationship is obviously not what it was."

On Monday, Starmer told the Commons the government "does not believe in regime change from the skies".

The UK initially did not allow the US to use British bases to attack Iran, but then opened its bases for "defensive" strikes on Iranian sites.

Trump tells the Sun: ""France has been great. They've all been great. The UK has been much different from others."
