Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claims to have attacked an Amazon Web Services (AWS) data center in Bahrain again.

As reported by state-affiliated news publication Sepah News, the IRGC said that it attacked the site with "several cruise missiles and destroyed it" on July 20.

AWS has yet to confirm whether its site was targeted, and no updates have been added to its status page regarding the Bahrain region, which has been severely disrupted for months since the first strikes from Iran in March. Further attacks were launched against the site in April.

DCD has contacted the company for comment.

The IRGC's statement states that the strikes were "in response to the aggression and assault of the American child-killing army on the civilian facilities under construction in Darkhovin yesterday (July 19)."

The strikes on Darkhovin were reportedly focused on the nuclear power plant that is currently under construction. The US Central Command (CentCom) did not state that the nuclear plant was targeted. The night of July 18 at 11:30pm ET, CentCom said that it hit "Iranian military coastal surveillance and air defense facilities, maritime capabilities, and missile and drone storage sites to continue degrading Iranian military capabilities. American military assets also targeted Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps forces that launched attacks against US service members in Jordan on July 17."

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said in a post on X that it was looking into reports of the overnight attack. It said: "The facility is in the very early stages of construction and contained no nuclear material when last visited by the IAEA."

Iran has previously hit an Oracle data center in Dubai and threatened OpenAI's Stargate site in the UAE.
