Bahrain said Friday that shrapnel from an Iranian attack caused a fire to break out at a company warehouse.

The Interior Ministry said civil defense teams extinguished the blaze without any injuries.

The ministry earlier said that sirens sounded and urged citizens and residents to remain calm and move to the nearest safe location.

US-Israeli strikes on Iran began on Feb. 28, with Tehran retaliating with drone and missile strikes targeting Gulf countries hosting US military assets.
