"Bahrain's air defences intercepted Iranian missiles on Saturday, with explosions seen in the sky over the capital Manama. It came following the US and Israel attacks on Iran - and Tehran's response. Donald Trump confirmed 'major combat operations' in Iran in a video posted on his Truth Social: "To the members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, the armed forces and all of the police, I say tonight that you must lay down your weapons and have complete immunity - or in the alternative, face certain death." Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu said it was a joint operation to "remove the existential threat posed by the terrorist regime in Iran". He later called on the Iranian people to 'take their fate into their own hands'. The Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps reported the 'first wave' of 'widespread missile and drone and attacks' against Israel was underway.
