## Resource

Iran unleashes drone and missile strikes on Bahrain and Kuwait in direct retaliation for U.S. airstrikes, escalating regional tensions over control of the vital Strait of Hormuz. Kuwait’s defenses intercepted incoming threats, while Bahrain reported civilian damage near its airport — a stark reminder of the volatile stakes as the U.S. Fifth Fleet remains stationed there. Iran blames the U.S. for violating ceasefire terms, while Washington insists Iran chose aggression over diplomacy. With both sides accusing each other of breaking truces and the global oil supply route hanging in the balance, the world watches as negotiations risk collapse amid a spiraling cycle of retaliation.
