Iran attacked Bahrain and Kuwait after the US strikes and threatened to disrupt talks to end the war.
The Associated Press writes about this.
Kuwaitʼs military said its air defense forces intercepted two ballistic missiles and drones. No injuries or damage were reported. In Bahrain, a residential building near the international airport was damaged by the strike, but no fatalities were reported.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said the target was the Al-Asad airbase in Kuwait and warned that further US strikes would lead to a "complete halt" to peace talks.
The US military struck Iranian military targets on June 26 after an attack on the commercial tanker Kiku in the Strait of Hormuz. The US President Donald Trump has threatened to use force against Iran if it violates the ceasefire again.
- The Strait of Hormuz has remained closed since the start of the war between the United States and Iran in late February. It was reopened last week after the sides agreed to a 60-day ceasefire.
- The United States, for its part, lifted a naval blockade of Iranian ports. Against this backdrop, oil prices fell to their lowest level since March — $73 a barrel.
- On June 22, after talks in Switzerland, Iran and the United States agreed on a roadmap that should lead to a final deal within 60 days. On the same day, the United States temporarily lifted sanctions on the production, supply, and sale of Iranian oil.
