Iran’s Revolutionary Guard announces drone and missile attacks targeting Bahrain and Kuwait, describing them as retaliation for recent U.S. airstrikes against Iran. Multiple outlets report that the attacks occur after the United States strikes several targets inside Iran, and that Tehran frames the actions as part of a broader response to U.S. military operations. The Iranian side also threatens to halt or enforce a “complete halt” to negotiations with Washington aimed at ending the wider conflict. Kuwait’s military says it detects and intercepts Iranian drones and ballistic missiles, and Bahrain reports damage following the strikes, including destruction of parts of a multi-story building near the targeted area. Kuwait and Bahrain both condemn the Iranian attacks, according to reporting that emphasizes regional reactions. Separately, outlets note that U.S.-Iran efforts to reduce tensions include an interim arrangement that links steps toward resuming activity in the Strait of Hormuz, a key shipping route. Overall coverage portrays the situation as escalating and placing existing diplomacy under strain, with Iran using the strikes and negotiation threats as leverage.
