Iran Strikes AWS Facility in Bahrain, Disrupts Services

AWS facility in Bahrain hit by Iran's military strike on Wednesday, causing temporary disruption to services.

The attack is part of a long-standing conflict between Iran and Western technology companies. In March, Iran officially labelled 18 US tech firms as legitimate military targets, including Amazon, Microsoft, Nvidia, Google, Apple, Meta, HP, Tesla, Oracle, Boeing, Cisco, and IBM.

Bahrain's interior ministry confirmed that Civil Defence forces responded to a fire at the facility following the Iranian strikes. Authorities said they were taking measures at the site.
