The Iranian missiles may have targeted US military bases across the region, including the UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Israel.

The West Asia war involving Iran, the United States and Israel entered its 14th day as Iran launched its 44th wave of ballistic missiles, according to information obtained by CNN-News18. The missiles were fired from an undisclosed location towards their intended targets.

Sirens and interceptor systems were activated across several countries in West Asia following the launch. The development marks another escalation in the ongoing conflict as military activity continues across the region.

Reports indicate that the missiles may have been aimed at United States military bases across several countries in the region. Possible targets include bases in the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Israel.

Air defence systems were activated in parts of the region after the missile launches, as authorities monitored the situation.

Iran says it will continue fighting

Meanwhile, Iran has warned that it could target the region’s energy infrastructure if its own facilities come under attack. A spokesman for Iran’s military central operational command, Khatam al-Anbiya, said the country would set the region’s oil and gas industry “on fire" if Iranian energy infrastructure or ports were struck.

Iranian security chief Ali Larijani said the country would not stop fighting until the United States regretted launching the war.

Referring to comments by Donald Trump about seeking a quick victory, Larijani said starting a war was easy but it could not be won with a few tweets. He said Iran would continue until the United States regretted what he called a “grave miscalculation".
