Bahrain Reports Fresh Drone Attack Day After Suspected Emirate Strike On Iran

Bahrain said that it intercepted and destroyed seven drones launched from Iran on April 9, just a day after the Islamic Republic and the United States agreed on a two-week ceasefire.

No details were given about injuries or damage from the alleged Iranian attacks. Nevertheless, the Bahraini Defense Force said in a statement that it had intercepted 194 missiles and 515 drones since the start of the war on Iran more than a month ago.

Bahrain, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates all reported attacks from Iran hours after the ceasefire came into effect a day earlier. There were also reports of an attack on a crucial oil pipeline leading to Read Sea terminals in Saudi Arabia.

The missile and drone attacks were apparently a response to a strike that targeted a refinery on Iran’s Lavan Island. The strike also took place after the ceasefire. Both the U.S. and Israel denied responsibility, with later evidence indicating that the strike may have been carried out by the UAE.

A photo that surfaced on social media purportedly showed a Mirage 2000-9 fighter jet of the UAE Air Force that was involved in the strike. The images have not been independently verified.

The UAE Ministry of Defense confirmed earlier in the day that its Mirage jets had been scrambled, framing their role as intercepting incoming Iranian drones and missiles.

The exchange of the strikes in the Gulf had no impact on the ceasefire. Plans for talks between Iranian and American officials in Pakistan on April 10 appear to be still in place.

Still, the latest strikes show that the ceasefire is fragile, and confirm that some sides are not pleased by the agreement reached.

“a photo that surfaced on social media purportedly showed a mirage 2000-9 fighter jet of the uae air force that was involved in the strike.”

uae = a pile of horse flops.

puTLER PIG

since russia’s betrayal of syria, israel has been constantly attacking iran. iranian drones brought victory to russia, but putler sold syria to erdogan at the brics meeting in kazan in 2024. in doing so, he destroyed hezbollah and iran. that’s why i think we should abolish brics.

the narrative

iran is forced to continue as planned. cease fire propaganda is not reality. the mafia cabal demands expansion. israel is the tool to get this done. destruction of all middle east energy production is a preferred outcome for the currency masters. obvious ! let that sink in a bit.

civilian

wondering how many entities have copied the geran/shahed drone. how many proxies have copies such as the lucas? anyway as long as the ceasefire does not cease the fire of ‘israel’ ,there is no point in it. ‘israel’ is the first who has to stop since it is the most stubborn belligerent. iran has proven that it is reliable and is able to respect treaties and deals with reasonable counterparts, remaining to be found.

the narrative

the iranian and chinese peoples are the top two nations in iq rated intelligence. media and the rewriting history has destroyed the american people

“bahrain said that it intercepted and destroyed seven drones launched from iran” (after ceasefire).

here’s the problem guys: the zionists in control of the west have lied and done false flags so many times it is simply not possible to believe a word they say any more. by default everything is a lie until proven true.

history and experience tells me either: 1) iran was attacked and they defended, or 2) false flag.

the attack was very brave of the uae but the world bully did have their backs. if lebanon and palestine can be left out of any ceasefire then so can bahrain, kuwait, and the united arab emirates.

Christopher

the iranian retaliatorily strike were just a token warning for the uae to not push iran’s patience.
