Iran strikes US interests in Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar after US bombings

In early July 2026, Iran launched drone and missile attacks targeting U.S. military sites in Kuwait, Bahrain, and Qatar. Tehran said the strikes were in response to ongoing U.S. bombings, marking the second consecutive night of exchanges between the two countries.

Local forces in Kuwait and Bahrain reported repelling some of the attacks. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard claimed responsibility, stating they aimed at U.S. military infrastructure in the region.
