The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has claimed responsibility for a series of strikes targeting U.S. assets located in Kuwait. According to Iranian officials, this military operation was a direct retaliatory measure following a wave of U.S. strikes conducted against Iranian territory one day prior.

Reports indicate that the U.S. military actions targeted several locations within Iran, with specific mention of infrastructure on Qeshm Island. The situation marks a significant escalation in regional tensions between the two nations. While Iranian state media has confirmed the strikes on Kuwait, there has been no immediate confirmation or detailed damage assessment provided by U.S. Central Command or Kuwaiti authorities regarding the status of the targeted facilities. The lack of independent verification makes it difficult to determine the scale of the damage or the specific nature of the U.S. assets hit during the operation. As of now, the international community is monitoring the situation for further developments, as both sides have yet to provide comprehensive statements regarding the full extent of the military engagement.
