Iran targets U.S. allies in the Gulf, firing drones at Kuwait and Bahrain following overnight attacks, according to reporting from multiple outlets. Both Kuwait and Bahrain are cited as locations hit by the drone strikes.

The coverage links the attacks to a broader escalation in the region. The Independent reports that the drone strikes come after U.S. airstrikes in Iran, framing the events as part of a tit-for-tat cycle. Other reporting emphasizes the focus on Gulf partners that support U.S. operations, placing the incidents within the context of ongoing security tensions across the Middle East.

While the outlets align on the core facts of who is targeted and that drones are used, they differ in how much they provide on immediate damage, casualties, and official responses. Each report also situates the incidents within the wider sequence of U.S.-Iran actions, but the details beyond the strikes themselves are limited in the shared excerpts.
