Kuwait City: Tensions in the Gulf have sharply intensified as Iran launched fresh attacks targeting multiple Gulf nations, reportedly in retaliation against strikes by the United States and Israel. In Kuwait, an Indian national was killed during the assault, though his identity is yet to be confirmed. The attacks primarily targeted critical infrastructure, including power stations and seawater desalination plants, resulting in significant damage to electricity facilities and water treatment systems.
Meanwhile, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) confirmed that its defence systems successfully intercepted and neutralized incoming threats. Residents reported hearing multiple explosions following a powerful early morning strike. Amid rising security concerns, Bahrain has imposed a nighttime ban on sea travel, including fishing, from 6 PM to 4 AM. The situation remains tense as Gulf nations stay on high alert.
