Two people, a Bangladeshi and an Indian, were killed and 12 others injured in a missile strike in central Saudi Arabia, the country’s civil defence agency reported on X.

Iran’s Revolutionary Guard said it targeted radar systems in locations including al-Kharj, where the deaths occurred, reports Al Jazeera.

The attacks come amid ongoing Iranian strikes on Israel and U.S. military assets in Gulf states, following initial U.S.-Israeli operations on February 28 and the killing of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Drone attacks also targeted the U.S. embassy in Saudi Arabia and the U.S. consulate in the United Arab Emirates on Tuesday. - UNB
