Kuwait activated its air defense systems shortly after U.S. Central Command announced it had completed a series of strikes inside Iran ordered by President Trump.
According to CENTCOM, the operation targeted Iranian military surveillance capabilities, communication systems, and air defense sites. The U.S. military said the strikes were aimed at assets that posed a threat to American forces and international commercial shipping operating in regional waters.
The strikes were completed at 9:04 p.m. ET, according to the U.S. military, marking another major escalation in the ongoing confrontation between Washington and Tehran.
Kuwait's decision to activate its air defenses highlights growing concerns across the Gulf that Iran could respond to the latest U.S. military action.
The developments come as regional tensions remain extremely high, with governments and markets closely monitoring the possibility of further escalation. 👀
