An Indian national was killed and at least 63 people were injured after an Iranian missile and drone attack struck Kuwait International Airport amid escalating Gulf tensions. The Indian Embassy confirmed the death, while Kuwait temporarily suspended flights following damage to airport facilities. India condemned the attack, reiterating that civilians and civilian infrastructure must not be targeted during conflicts. The strike comes amid renewed hostilities involving Iran, the United States, Bahrain and regional actors despite a fragile ceasefire agreed in April. Oil prices rose as uncertainty persisted around the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz. Diplomatic efforts continue, but ongoing military actions threaten regional stability, global energy supplies and international shipping routes.
