Iran Launches New Missile Attack on US Bases in Middle East

Yerevan, March 3 – Iran has launched a new wave of heavy missiles towards American bases in the Middle East, according to reports from March 2, 2026. This development significantly escalates tensions in the region, following earlier strikes by Hezbollah on an Israeli airbase and a drone attack on the US Embassy in Riyadh.

Escalating Regional Conflict

The missile launches occurred on the evening of March 2nd, with reports indicating a direct targeting of US bases. This latest action follows a series of aggressive maneuvers by Iran and its allies in the past 24 hours.

  • Hezbollah’s Strike: On March 2nd, Hezbollah attacked an Israeli airbase, further intensifying the conflict between the two nations.
  • Riyadh Embassy Attack: The US Embassy in Riyadh was subjected to a drone attack, the perpetrators of which remain unconfirmed, but suspicions point towards Iranian-backed groups.
  • Earlier Iranian Strikes: Iran previously launched missiles towards Israeli targets, indicating a sustained campaign of aggression.

US President Donald Trump has stated that the US is prepared to take action against Iran for as long as necessary and is actively working to destroy Iran’s missile capabilities. He also warned of a large wave of strikes from the US armed forces coming soon.

International Reactions and Concerns

The international community is closely monitoring the situation. European leaders, including the Netherlands’ Prime Minister Mark Rutte, have expressed readiness to support the US in its operations against Iran.

However, some nations, such as the UAE and Qatar, are reportedly attempting to persuade the US to shorten the duration of its operation against Iran, fearing a broader regional conflict.

Expert Analysis

Analysts are divided on the potential outcomes. Some suggest that the escalation in the Middle East is increasingly bringing about an international energy crisis. Others believe that Iran is attempting to restore a ‘balance of terror’ in the region.

There are predictions of two scenarios: a deal with the current regime or the practical implementation of a plan to dismember Iran. Experts emphasize the need for extreme vigilance and preparedness for any scenario in the coming days.

Weather Forecast for Yerevan

In other news, Yerevan is expected to have precipitation-free weather on March 3rd, the night of March 4th, and March 6th. Intermittent precipitation, including snow, sleet, and rain, is expected in the afternoon of March 4th, and on March 5th and 7th.

Temperatures in Yerevan for March 3rd are expected to decrease by 4-8 degrees Celsius. The maximum recorded temperature for March 3rd in Yerevan was 18.6°C (1955), and the minimum was -24.5°C (1985).
