Amazon appears to agree.
The IRGC said in a statement on Tuesday that it had struck back at what it called the “child-killing US Army” by attacking Amazon infrastructure in Bahrain, claiming AWS’s “central data infrastructure” had been “destroyed” after being hit by “several cruise missiles,” according to Google Translate. The IRGC said the claimed strike was retaliation for what Iran described as a US attack on the under-construction Darkhovin nuclear facility.
A look at the AWS Health Dashboard shows that there are definitely issues in Bahrain and the UAE, with issues in both regions being blamed on the US-Iranian conflict. While the status of AWS me-central-1 (UAE) is just “unable to reliably support customer applications,” me-south-1 (Bahrain) is said to be “currently unavailable.”
The last update to the state of AWS services in Bahrain and the UAE in the open issues area of the Dashboard was on April 30, and the Service History tab shows that every single AWS service in Bahrain has been offline for months.
