## Resource

Iran launches ballistic missiles and drones at Bahrain and Kuwait, triggering air raid alerts and prompting both nations to demand an immediate end to the aggression. The U.S. intercepts incoming threats and retaliates by striking Iranian radar sites, escalating tensions in a region already destabilized by conflict. Iranian forces claim responsibility for attacks on U.S. bases in Kuwait and Bahrain, while drones damage Kuwait’s main airport. Despite the violence, President Trump remains optimistic, though ceasefire talks and nuclear negotiations remain stalled as pressure mounts on Tehran.
