Iran Launches Missile and Drone Attacks on Kuwait Amid Regional Tensions; Netanyahu Seeks Right-Wing UnityPreviousNext

Iran launched missile and drone attacks on Kuwait on Thursday, part of its retaliation following recent US strikes on Iranian targets in the Gulf. Kuwait's air defences intercepted the attacks amid similar Iranian strikes reported in Bahrain, Jordan, and Iraq. The incidents have heightened tensions in the region. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is working to unite Israel's fragmented right-wing parties ahead of the October 27 election, aiming to strengthen his chances for reelection amid a politically charged environment.
