National Herald India \u2013 March 28, 2026<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Iran\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has claimed responsibility for a drone and missile strike targeting US Marine forces stationed on Kuwait\u2019s Bubiyan Island, saying the attack caused casualties among American troops as the confrontation between Washington, Tehran and Israel expands across the Gulf.<\/p>\n

In a video statement, Iranian military spokesperson Ebrahim Zolfaghari described the assault as part of what Tehran characterised as a broader campaign aimed at forcing US forces out of the region.<\/p>\n

\u201cComplete elimination of American soldiers from land of Muslims,” Zolfaghari said, framing the strike as retaliation for recent US and Israeli attacks on Iranian nuclear and strategic infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Bubiyan Island, located off Kuwait\u2019s north-eastern coast near the Iraqi border, hosts logistics and surveillance facilities used by US forces to support operations in the northern Gulf. The island\u2019s proximity to key shipping lanes makes it strategically important for monitoring maritime traffic and coordinating deployments.<\/p>\n

Iranian state-linked channels have also claimed that six US Landing Craft Utility (LCU) vessels were struck at Dubai\u2019s Port of Al Shyoukh using Qadr-380 cruise missiles. LCUs are amphibious transport vessels designed to move troops, armoured vehicles and heavy equipment from sea to shore during expeditionary operations.<\/p>\n

While there has been no independent confirmation of damage to the vessels, the claim reflects Iran\u2019s growing emphasis on targeting logistics and transport platforms that underpin US amphibious capability in the region.<\/p>\n

The Qadr-380 is a long-range anti-ship cruise missile unveiled by Iran in 2025, reportedly capable of striking maritime targets at distances exceeding 1,000 km and designed to evade electronic countermeasures through anti-jamming technology.<\/p>\n

IRGC has previously showcased the missile during naval exercises in the Strait of Hormuz and Gulf of Oman, highlighting its ability to threaten US naval assets operating in the region\u2019s narrow waterways.<\/p>\n

Military analysts say the system is intended to complicate US naval operations by targeting high-value assets such as destroyers, logistics ships and amphibious platforms that support troop deployments.<\/p>\n

The latest claims come amid intensifying hostilities triggered by the United States and Israel\u2019s military campaign against Iran, launched on February 28 with coordinated strikes targeting nuclear-linked facilities, missile infrastructure and senior commanders.<\/p>\n

Iran has since responded with waves of drone and missile attacks on US-linked assets and allied infrastructure across the Gulf, widening the geographical scope of the conflict and increasing the likelihood of sustained confrontation.<\/p>\n

US President Donald Trump has acknowledged the possibility of further American casualties even as he continues to describe the confrontation as a limited military operation rather than a full-scale war.<\/p>\n

GAME CHANGER: The IRGC confirms that a number of U.S. Marine terrorist invaders have been captured. More to follow.<\/p>\n

This is in addition to the delta forces previously captured. Kosher media will not cover this story. Trump will lie about it. https:\/\/t.co\/7gOUa47OHy<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/he9OXKH2k9<\/a><\/p>\n
