The Alleged Strike

Wider Context and Threats
The IRGC linked the strike to a US attack on Arbaeen pilgrims heading to Karbala, accusing Washington of using ceasefire talks as a ruse to replenish oil and ammunition. It also alleged US forces have exhausted cruise missile stocks on Indian Ocean ships and are now relying on B-1 bombers from RAF Fairford in the UK. Tehran warned it considers any base used for strikes on Iran a legitimate military target.
Lack of Confirmation
