Amman, June 3 (Petra) – Bahrain said on Wednesday its air defenses
intercepted and destroyed three Iranian missiles and several drones,
which were fired on civilian targets in the country.
In a statement carried by the official Bahraini News Agency, the

“systematic hostile approach” targeting civilian objects with
missiles and drones. Bahraini forces dealt with the attacks with
“high combat readiness” and thwarted them, it added.
The General Command said attacking civilian targets and private
property with missiles and drones is a flagrant violation of
