What we know about the joint US-Israel attack on Iran | BBC News | BBC News
Iranian forces say they have struck a US naval base in Bahrain, as Iran launched strikes across the region in retaliation for a “massive” and ongoing attack against it by the US and Israel.
Elsewhere across the region, the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait – all home to US military bases – said they have intercepted missiles in their air space.
In Doha, Qatar’s defence ministry said it had intercepted several missiles apparently targeting the al-Udeid air base, the largest American base in the region.
US President Donald Trump has described ongoing “major combat operations” and called for Iranian government forces to lay down their arms.
Earlier, Israel’s defence minister said Israel had launched a “pre-emptive attack” against Iran, with explosions heard across the country.
This comes after weeks of threats and negotiations over Iran’s nuclear programme.

BP’s profits for the first three months of the year have more than doubled following a surge in oil prices since the beginning of the Iran war.
US President Donald Trump claims that Iran has told the US it is in a state of “collapse” and would like the US to reopen the Strait of Hormuz as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, a superyacht linked to one of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s key allies has sailed through the strait, despite the ongoing blockade of the critical shipping channel.

Why was the F-15E so deep inside Iran?
What was going on close to Isfahan, where a large amount of Iran’s enriched uranium was last believed to be held?
There are reports that 100 US Special Forces operators were flown there.
There is some speculation that it may have been part of a secret operation to grab the uranium, that came unstuck when the jet was downed.
Exactly what happened is unclear, but there is enough footage circulating online to raise real questions about the initial account of what was going on.
The Security Brief takes a closer look at that dramatic rescue operation – and some of the questions that have arisen since.
