Fire and thick smoke were seen rising from inside the US Embassy compound in Kuwait on Monday after an Iranian strike, as the widening US-Iran conflict spreads across West Asia. Video showed smoke billowing with alarms wailing, while firefighters and ambulances rushed to the area. The US had earlier warned of a continuing drone and missile threat, urging Americans to shelter indoors and avoid the embassy. Air raid sirens also sounded in Bahrain. The escalation follows Iran’s retaliatory strikes across the Gulf, raising fears of a broader regional war involving Lebanon and Israel. (PC: India Today)
