State Department issues security alerts for ten regional countries as Kuwait responds to drone attacks and a tanker is struck in the Strait of Hormuz.

Tensions escalate after Iranian drone strikes on Kuwait and US announcements of new strikes, as Tehran warns that an attack on its infrastructure would set the entire region ablaze.

The American president said attacks will continue until Tehran agrees to serious negotiations, as tensions rise in the region following incidents with tankers and drones.

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) launched a massive missile attack on July 30, 2026, targeting U.S. air bases in Jordan and Kuwait, claiming to have destroyed three F-35 fighter jets and killed several American soldiers. The attack is retaliation for recent U.S. strikes on the Iranian island of Qeshm.

According to a Wall Street Journal report, both Gulf states for the first time directly attacked Iranian military targets, targeting drone and missile storage facilities. The conflict escalates weeks after the US broke the ceasefire with Tehran.
