US president Donald Trump has launched a new wave of missile strikes on Iranian cities, while Tehran launched fresh attacks on Bahrain.

The US military said it has completed a five-hour mission, targeting ‌military bases ‌across Iran, including ⁠Bushehr, Chah Bahar, Jask, Konarak, Abu Musa, and Bandar Abbas.

It said the troops “employed precision munitions against Iranian coastal defence systems, missile and drone sites, and maritime capabilities”.The attack comes as the United Arab Emirates condemned Iran for its “blatant attack” on two Emirati oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, which resulted in the death of one Indian crew member.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said on Tuesday that two “offending” supertankers had been ​hit and ⁠disabled in the strait after ignoring ‌repeated warnings, turning off navigation systems and attempting to pass through what the Guard described as a mined route.

Meanwhile, Bahrain sounded air raid sirens at least three times on Tuesday morning as Iran claimed it struck “several weapons storage depots, a satellite communications centre, and a building housing US forces” at the Al-Juffair base.

The renewed strikes come as Trump vowed to charge a 20 per cent toll on vessels moving through the strait, a plan which Iran’s foreign minister has mocked.
