On Saturday, U.S. and Iranian forces exchanged missile and drone strikes across the Persian Gulf, marking a major escalation in their 100-day conflict.
Iranian forces targeted U.S. bases in Kuwait and Bahrain, resulting in a drone strike on Kuwait’s international airport that killed one civilian and injured dozens. In response, the U.S. military reported shooting down multiple ballistic missiles and drones while conducting retaliatory strikes on Iranian coastal radar installations. Both nations accuse the other of violating a shaky three-month ceasefire, even as indirect peace negotiations continue to stall over asset freezes and damage reparations.
Observers are watching for a potential collapse of diplomatic talks as regional allies demand stronger security guarantees against further Iranian aggression.
