1:30Now Playing💢 NEW: U.S. firing ground-based missiles at Iran from Gulf soil, WSJ reports
The U.S. has begun using ground-launched ballistic missiles against Iran – marking the first combat use of its newer, highly accurate long-range Army systems and expanding what had been largely an air war, the Wall Street Journal reports.
These missiles have a range of roughly 200–300 miles, meaning they must be fired from nearby – pointing to Gulf territory being used for launches despite public claims of neutrality.
Videos verified by Storyful, owned by the Journal’s parent company, show at least some launches originating from Bahrain, just 125 miles across the Gulf.
Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said U.S. forces struck Kharg Island, home to the country’s main oil export hub, from the UAE.
