Iran Attacks Gulf Allies as Peace Falters

Iran’s surprise drone and missile strikes on Bahrain and Kuwait—just days after U.S. airstrikes—have shattered fragile peace talks and plunged the Strait of Hormuz crisis into chaos. With the U.S. Navy backing a new shipping route near Oman, Tehran sees it as a direct threat and insists sole control over the vital waterway. While Kuwait and Bahrain report no casualties, damage was inflicted in Bahrain near a U.S. military hub, fueling regional condemnation. The U.S. retaliates by targeting Iranian infrastructure, warning of catastrophic consequences if Iran escalates further. With a 60-day ceasefire window at risk and fighting still raging in Lebanon, the world watches as the Islamic Republic’s survival may hinge on a single, volatile decision.
