The General Command of the Bahrain Defense Force announced Wednesday the destruction of 74 missiles and 95 hostile drones since the start of the Iranian aggression against the country.
In a statement, the General Command said that all its air defense systems are on high alert to ensure an immediate and decisive response to the missiles and drones of the ongoing and unjustified Iranian aggression against the country.
The General Command indicated that specialized field teams are working to secure the attack sites with maximum speed to ensure everyone's safety, and that air defense systems are on high alert and fully prepared.
