Iran warns of 'extensive and widespread' response to US attacks, claims strikes on US forces in Bahrain, UAE

Iranian army statement threatens broad retaliation for US strikes, claiming attacks on radar systems, operational centers, and areas sheltering US forces in Bahrain and UAE. The claim is unverified; the threat escalates rhetoric following US targeting of residential areas in Iran, which Tehran labels a war crime. This marks a significant escalation in direct Iran-US military confrontation, with potential for regional conflict expansion.
