Iran has blown up a CIA station at the US Embassy in Saudi Arabia as the agency works to arm militants for an uprising against the Islamic regime.

A suspected Iranian drone struck the CIA station on Monday, just two days after the spy agency pinpointed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s location in the strike that killed him.

An internal State Department alert revealed that Tehran’s attack ‘collapsed’ part of the station’s roof and ‘contaminated’ the compound with smoke, according to the Washington Post.

The station also sustained ‘structural damage’ while personnel were advised to ‘shelter in place.’

It is unclear if any CIA agents or personnel were killed or wounded in the attack.

The CIA has long been viewed by the Islamic regime as its arch-enemy, in part because of the agency’s history of covert efforts aimed at undermining its leadership.

Tehran’s attack also comes as the spy agency works to arm Kurdish militants inside the country in an effort to foment an uprising following the ayatollah’s death.  

The Daily Mail has contacted the CIA for comment.

Top White House officials have been in active discussions with Kurdish leaders in Iraq about providing them with military support to strike the regime. 

Iranian Kurdish militants have thousands of soldiers along the Iraq-Iran border with major support in Northern Iraq’s Kurdistan region. 

Since the fall of Saddam Hussein in 2003, this semi-autonomous region has served as a safe haven for local Kurdish groups that pose a military threat to Iran’s regime. 

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has targeted these groups with dozens of drone strikes since the start of the war on Saturday.

President Donald Trump on Tuesday reportedly spoke with the president of the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan, one of the major Kurdish opposition groups targeted by Tehran’s military. 

The Sunni Muslim group has engaged in guerrilla warfare against the Iranian military and the IRGC. 

‘Operation Epic Fury’ wiped out much of Iran’s top leadership over the weekend as part of a joint US–Israeli military campaign aimed at crippling the regime after Trump’s diplomatic talks collapsed last week.

Despite the death of the ayatollah, the Islamic government appears to remain in control of the country. The CIA’s reported efforts to arm Kurdish militants could pose one of the most existential threats to the regime.

Trump’s war has now spiraled across the Middle East, with Israeli cities and several Gulf allies coming under Iranian drone and missile attacks.

The US has responded with a wave of airstrikes aimed at crippling Iran’s military bases and remaining leadership. 

American embassies in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and the UAE have been struck by drones. The State Department has ordered the departure of non-emergency personnel in response. 

A total of six American troops are dead following the launch of ‘Operation Epic Fury, ‘ while nearly two dozen remain hospitalized from injuries.
