Iranian officials made two separate claims Thursday regarding military activities involving technology infrastructure and weapons systems.

Iran's Revolutionary Guards stated they targeted an Amazon cloud computing center located in Bahrain, according to a Reuters report. No details were provided about the nature or extent of any alleged attack on the facility.

Separately, a spokesperson for Iran's Foreign Ministry claimed the United States has deployed a new precision strike missile system and used it in recent operations. The official alleged that the weapon, identified as a precision strike missile (PrSM), was used on February 28, 2026, and resulted in civilian casualties including children during strikes conducted by the U.S. and Israel.

The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson characterized this as the combat debut of the new American missile system. However, the specific details of the alleged incident and the timeline referenced could not be independently verified.

Neither Amazon nor U.S. officials immediately responded to requests for comment regarding the Iranian claims about the cloud computing facility or the weapons allegations.
