Iran Launches Its Most Advanced Ballistic Missile Khorramshahr-4 Against U.S. Bases in Qatar and Bahrain

Iran has reportedly carried out a large coordinated strike across the Middle East, using its most advanced ballistic missile, the Khorramshahr-4, to target U.S. military bases in Qatar and Bahrain while launching a massive barrage of roughly 600 missiles and 2,000 unmanned aerial systems toward Israel. The operation marks one of the largest combined missile and drone attacks attributed to Iran, significantly expanding the conflict’s geographic scope beyond Israel by striking Gulf states that host key U.S. military installations. Defense analysts note that the reported use of the Khorramshahr-4, believed to have a range approaching 2,000 km and capable of carrying a heavy payload, demonstrates the operational maturity of Iran’s strategic missile forces and their ability to threaten multiple regional targets simultaneously.
