Iran Extends Attacks to U.S. Military Bases in Multiple Middle East Countries

Tensions escalated in the Middle East as Iran launched new attacks targeting U.S. interests in Jordan and Kuwait. These strikes followed a U.S. announcement of completing 90 attacks against Iran aimed at degrading Tehran's capabilities. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps warned Washington of "forceful responses" to other U.S. bases in the Persian Gulf if aggression repeats, after yesterday's and today's attacks resulted in 14 deaths and 78 injuries, according to Iranian health authorities.

Kuwait's Armed Forces reported intercepting three ballistic missiles, a cruise missile, and ten drones launched by Iran. The attack caused at least one injury and material damage. The Kuwaiti Ministry of Foreign Affairs asserted the country's right to take necessary measures to protect its security and sovereignty. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed responsibility, stating they attacked "important infrastructure and facilities of U.S. bases" in Kuwait.

In Jordan, the Army announced it intercepted and downed eight missiles launched from Iran. While fragments fell, there were no casualties or damage. This marks the first such attacks by Iran on Jordan in a month. Air raid sirens also sounded in Bahrain, and Qatar's Interior Ministry issued a high security threat alert, though the danger later passed.
