Summary
Iran and the U.S. are locked in escalating conflict in the Gulf, with Iran striking Kuwait’s vital desalination facilities—triggering fires and sparking accusations that the U.S. bombed Iran’s own water infrastructure. The U.S. denies targeting civilians, claiming strikes hit military sites and maritime assets amid seven straight nights of bombing since a ceasefire collapsed. Iran also claims U.S. bases in Jordan and Kuwait were targeted, while Bahrain and Jordan report intercepting Iranian strikes. With tensions soaring after Trump declared the ceasefire dead, the region teeters on the brink of deeper chaos. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
