The US armed forces announced on Wednesday that they had repelled Iranian missile and drone attacks on Kuwait and Bahrain. According to the US Central Command, they subsequently carried out defensive strikes against targets on Iran's Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz. lidovky.cz ↗
The attacks took place in the Persian Gulf despite the officially valid ceasefire. In Kuwait, air defenses were engaged overnight against missiles and drones. Sirens also sounded in Bahrain, home to the headquarters of the US Fifth Fleet. According to available information, Tehran claims to have struck this headquarters, but the American side reported repelling the attacks. pravda.sk ↗
Since the end of February, Iran has repeatedly launched missiles and drones toward Kuwait and other Persian Gulf states following the start of American and Israeli attacks on Iran. The latest exchange of strikes thus points to continuing tension in a region important for both maritime shipping and energy markets. irozhlas.cz ↗
Part of the broader development is also the American blockade of vessels heading to Iran. The United States stated that on Tuesday it disabled a ship sailing toward an Iranian port, and had previously similarly struck a cargo vessel flying the flag of Gambia. Further developments will depend on whether the ceasefire holds following the latest reported attacks. svet.sme.sk ↗
