Iran live updates: Bahrain accuses Iran of targeted drone attack following US strikes on Iranian targets

Bahrain’s Foreign Ministry issued a strong statement on Saturday morning in response to alleged Iranian attacks on its territory.

Ministry officials said an attack was carried out "at dawn" by a number of drones.

Officials described the attack "a blatant violation of its sovereignty, a flagrant threat to the security of citizens and residents, and a blatant breach of international norms and conventions."

The U.S. strikes against Iran involved six U.S. aircraft attacking four targets, a U.S. official told ABC News.

The official said those targets included missile, drone and radar sites along the Iranian coastline.

Following Friday's strikes, Vice President JD Vance emphasized that Iran signed a ceasefire agreement and "can pick up the phone" if it has any issues with the memorandum of understanding, in a post on social media.

"Iran signed a ceasefire agreement. We have honored it. If they have disagreements about how the MOU is being applied, they can pick up the phone. But violence will be met with violence," he said.

Vance was in Switzerland earlier this week to negotiate the implementation of the MOU with Iran and mediators.

Friday's airstrikes against Iran mark the first U.S. military strikes on Iranian targets since the memorandum of understanding was signed on June 17, and the first test of whether the peace process it launched can withstand direct attacks between its signatories.

The strikes were designed with the goal of having a large enough scope to send a strong message on freedom of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz and provide a "course correction," but limited enough to avoid restarting the conflict and significantly derailing diplomacy, a U.S. official said -- adding the caveat that whether or how Iran chose to respond would play a big part in that.

The official said there was initially some debate within the administration over whether it was necessary to launch a military response to Iran's drone strike on the Singapore-flagged cargo ship, but that chilling effect on traffic in the strait and Tehran's messaging on managing the waterway drove the decision.

On U.S.-Iran negotiations, working-level groups have been continuing to work on key areas, and a fresh round of technical talks is currently scheduled to resume at the beginning of next week in Switzerland.
