The United States said it carried out self-defence strikes on Iranian radar and drone command sites near the Strait of Hormuz after accusing Tehran of hostile actions, including the downing of a US drone. Iran's Revolutionary Guard said it responded by targeting a US-linked air base and warned of stronger retaliation if attacks continue. Meanwhile, Kuwait reported intercepting hostile missiles and drones and condemned what it called repeated Iranian attacks. The latest military exchanges have raised tensions in the Gulf region, even as efforts continue to secure a broader ceasefire and diplomatic agreement.
