Prior to these strikes, the U.S. Navy significantly increased its presence in the region, with approximately one-third of its deployed fleet aimed at deterring Iranian aggression.
The assault has raised urgent questions regarding the effectiveness of regional air defences, despite the presence of Patriot PAC-3 systems tasked with shielding the Bahrain base.
