Iran Claims Strikes on U.S. Bases in Kuwait and Jordan; U.S. Denies Damage
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claims to have launched drone and missile strikes on U.S. military bases in Kuwait and Jordan, targeting facilities including drone hangars, fuel depots, and fighter jet shelters. The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) denies any damage, stating all attacks were intercepted. Analysts view Iran's actions as a strategic shift toward controlled conflict amid ongoing regional tensions, which have also affected global energy markets and resulted in casualties, including Indian nationals.
