Past 48 hours herald 'very serious' phase of Iran conflict

Bahrain has been hit by one of its worst attacks of the war so far after an Iranian missile struck a military base in the west of the island.

It comes as Iran has intensified its attacks across the Gulf States, with Iran's de facto closure of the Strait of Hormuz also continuing.

Meanwhile, media in Iran is reporting that Israeli-US strikes have targeted two of its gas facilities and a pipeline, hours after US President Donald Trump claimed he'd temporarily halt attacks on power infrastructure.
