Seyed M. Marandi: Iran Launches 30+ Missiles and Drones at Bahrain as Explosions Rock the Gulf
Description
This interview analyzes the escalating military conflict between Iran and the US in the Persian Gulf. Despite US airstrikes, Iranian capabilities remain intact due to fortified underground bases and decoy systems. In retaliation, Iran launched heavy missile strikes on US assets in Bahrain and Oman, actively targeting oil tankers to blockade the Strait of Hormuz.
The discussion also covers the strategic blunders of US Gulf proxies, notably Saudi Arabia’s dangerous escalation against a civilian flight carrying a Yemeni delegation, which has prompted Yemen to threaten critical Saudi oil infrastructure and Red Sea pipelines. With global oil markets reeling and US regional assets highly vulnerable, this analysis explores why this conflict is unwinnable for the US and its allies, while Iran maintains the upper hand through military preparedness and regional leverage.
