## Prediction

Iran’s IRGC is likely to sustain at least low-to-moderate tempo missile and drone launches toward U.S. and coalition facilities in Bahrain, Jordan, and possibly the UAE over the next day, aiming to impose psychological and political costs while avoiding mass-casualty events that could trigger overwhelming retaliation. Base defenses will intercept most threats, but intermittent damage and casualties remain plausible. This pressures host governments facing domestic fear and opposition questions about hosting U.S. forces. Confirmation would include further CENTCOM intercept statements and localized reports of blasts near bases; denial would be an observed, publicly messaged Iranian pause coupled with reduced air defense activity logs.

## Drivers

- Confirmed IRGC strikes on US bases in Bahrain and Jordan
- Ongoing US multi-night air campaign inside Iran
- Iranian pattern of calibrated retaliation in prior crises
- No evidence yet of a ceasefire mechanism
