Iran fires drones toward Saudi Arabia and Kuwait

Iran launched multiple drones at Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, with both countries shooting down several; the conflict disrupts oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz, U.S. officials warn.

  • On Tuesday, Iran fired drones toward Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, with the Saudi Defense Ministry destroying two drones and Kuwait's National Guard shooting down six.
  • Conflicting U.S. rhetoric — first calling the war a 'short excursion', then threatening 'TWENTY TIMES HARDER' — came Monday as Ali Mohammad Naini, spokesman for Iran's Revolutionary Guard, said 'Iran will determine when the war ends'.
  • Targeting of oil and gas infrastructure has caused oil to swing from nearly $120 per barrel back toward $90, affecting markets and shipping.
  • Several U.S. diplomatic missions ordered all but key staff to leave, the United Arab Emirates lowered overnight missile-alert volume, and reports confirm seven U.S. service members and mariners killed.
  • Iran's leadership signals and state-media images show it is prepared for a prolonged conflict, with the Revolutionary Guard saying 'Iran will determine when the war ends' and adviser Kamal Kharazi warning there is little room for diplomacy, as the war's impact continues to ripple globally.
