Iran retaliates with missile strikes on US bases in Bahrain, Israel
Iran launched retaliatory missile strikes against US military installations in Bahrain and Israel, hours after US and Israeli forces targeted Iranian sites. Bahrain's National Communication Centre confirmed a direct hit on the US Navy's Fifth Fleet headquarters at Naval Support Activity Bahrain in Juffair/Mina Salman port. CENTCOM has not yet confirmed damage or casualties. Iran also fired missiles toward Israel, with Israeli defenses intercepting several. The escalation follows Israeli strikes on Tehran and other Iranian targets earlier Friday. Oil prices fell Friday as nuclear talks eased supply concerns, with Brent crude at $70.70 and WTI at $65.20. Will this military escalation impact Nigeria's oil imports and economic stability?
