Iran Guards say struck Bahrain, UAE aluminium plants

Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said on Sunday (March 29, 2026) they launched missile and drone strikes on aluminium plants in Bahrain and the UAE over the weekend, targeting what they described as industries linked to the U.S. military.

Since the West Asia war erupted at the end of February, Bahrain and other Gulf countries have regularly been targeted by Iranian missile and drone strikes in retaliation for the U.S.-Israeli campaign, now in its second month.

Iran-Israel war: Follow LIVE updates on March 29, 2026

In a statement carried by Iranian state broadcaster IRIB, the Guards said they hit an aluminium facility in the UAE and Aluminium Bahrain’s main plant, calling both sites “industries affiliated with and connected to the U.S. military and aerospace sectors in the region”.

The IRGC said the strikes were retaliation for a U.S.-Israeli attack on Iranian industrial infrastructure launched from bases in Gulf states.

Aluminium Bahrain, one of the world’s largest aluminium producers, said two employees were wounded in an Iranian strike targeting its facility on Saturday (March 28, 2026).

The company, also known as Alba, said the workers suffered minor injuries.
