US military intensifies airstrikes on Iran

Kuwait said strikes on desalination and power plants caused fires and damage as 90% of its drinking water comes from desalination, officials said.

  • On Tuesday, Kuwait's Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy Ministry reported Tehran struck desalination and power plants for a fourth consecutive night, following ongoing U.S. and Iranian military strikes across the region.
  • U.S. Central Command confirmed strikes targeting Iranian military command centers, missile launch sites, and air defense systems, stating these actions respond to Iran's attacks on shipping in the Persian Gulf.
  • Nearly 90% of Kuwait's drinking water relies on desalination, making the targeted infrastructure vital to the nation's survival, according to reports of fires and damage caused by recent Iranian strikes.
  • Iranian Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni met with Pakistani officials on Tuesday, including army chief Field Marshal Asim Munir, as diplomats attempted to salvage the collapsed interim deal between Iran and the United States.
  • Despite diplomatic efforts, the conflict could escalate toward all-out war, with President Donald Trump warning that "every time Iran kills an American Soldier" going forward, they will pay for that killing many times over.
