Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) says that in response to a US airstrike on the Iran-Iraq border, where pilgrims were present, Tehran has struck and destroyed an American electronic warfare unit at the Al-Udayri Camp in Kuwait, state broadcaster Press TV reports.

According to the broadcaster, the IRGC states that the flight control tower of this base was also hit and sustained damage, and “punitive operations of our forces are ongoing”.

“The defeated United States on the battlefield is once again seeking, through deceit and trickery, to create another opportunity to catch its breath and replenish its forces for an attack, and in recent statements, it keeps talking about returning to negotiations,” the Corps is quoted as saying.

“The enemy must pay the price for its breach of promises, and this time we will not allow America to use deceptive ceasefires to replenish its oil and ammunition stockpiles and then resume attacks once again.”
