Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps claims targeting US radar in Bahrain, escalating regional tensions as Israel debates striking Iran.

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has claimed responsibility for targeting a US early-warning radar in Bahrain, stating it was retaliation for an alleged air attack on a telecommunications tower in southern Iran. This marks the first claimed attack on US military assets in a Gulf country since early September. Concurrently, Israel's security cabinet is reportedly stepping up preparations for a possible attack on Iran, with internal debate between Prime Minister Netanyahu and former military chief Eisenkot on the timing and necessity of such a strike.
