Multiple outlets report that the United States conducts strikes on Iranian targets, followed by retaliatory attacks from Iran against Bahrain and Kuwait. Several reports say U.S. forces hit multiple targets across Iran late Saturday, and that Tehran then launches a fresh wave of missiles and drones early Sunday. Bahrain and Kuwait—both described as hosting key American military bases—are cited as the locations targeted by Iran’s operations.
CBS News reports that a U.S. official says no casualties are reported from the attacks. GMA News Online likewise describes Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying its navy and aerospace forces conduct a joint missile and drone operation targeting U.S. military sites in the region.
Iran frames the strikes as retaliation for the U.S. action against Iran and links the escalation to the broader diplomatic context. CBS News and Breitbart both report Iranian warnings that negotiations could be halted if the U.S. continues attacks. France 24 also notes that the renewed violence follows concerns about the fragile ceasefire and heightened tensions related to efforts around the Strait of Hormuz, a major shipping route.
Overall, sources describe a rapid escalation marked by U.S. strikes in Iran and Iranian missile-and-drone attacks on Bahrain and Kuwait.
