On June 3, 2026, Iran launched a significant wave of 13 ballistic missiles and 17 attack drones targeting regional neighbors Kuwait and Bahrain. U.S. Central Command confirmed that U.S. and Bahraini forces intercepted the majority of the projectiles, though falling debris at Kuwait International Airport caused significant facility damage and killed one Indian national. The IRGC stated the attack was a response to the U.S. blockade and recent strikes on Iranian naval assets near the Strait of Hormuz.
