Amazon’s cloud facility in Bahrain was damaged in an Iranian strike as tensions escalate between Tehran and US-linked technology firms. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps warned it would target major American companies, including Apple, Google and Meta, if further Iranian officials are killed. The statement alleged these firms assist in tracking and designing assassination operations. Employees and nearby residents were urged to evacuate areas around such facilities. The incident follows earlier drone strikes on Amazon data centres in the region. The developments highlight a widening conflict scope, with corporate infrastructure increasingly drawn into the confrontation amid ongoing US-Iran hostilities and rising regional instability concerns.
