Overview

After the US launched strikes on 90 targets in Iran, Gulf states including Bahrain and Kuwait experienced air raid sirens as Iran retaliated with drone and missile attacks on US-linked sites. Kuwaiti forces intercepted multiple missiles and drones, with one injury reported from shrapnel. This escalation underscores the fragile security environment in the Gulf, a critical global energy corridor, and raises geopolitical risks that may impact regional stability and global markets.
