IRGC Blames Israel for Kuwait Attacks
Iran's IRGC publicly accused Israel of carrying out strikes on Kuwaiti power and water facilities. The IRGC condemned the attacks as false flag, hostile and inhumane.
Arab and Western outlets reported Iranian strikes; Iranian sources reversed blame, naming Israel as the actor. At least one foreign worker was killed in the attacks.
IRGC Declares US-Israeli Forces Targets
The IRGC reiterated that US bases and Israeli sites remain among its declared targets. It warned West Asian countries to remain vigilant against US-Israeli destabilization attempts.
Iranian retaliation broadened beyond Iran's borders, with Gulf civilian infrastructure increasingly caught in the crossfire. Economic and infrastructure damage spread across the Gulf as oil prices surged.
Kuwait's Energy Sector Targeted Repeatedly
The attacks came less than 24 hours after Kuwait’s Al-Ahmadi oil refinery was hit. An Indian worker was confirmed killed in the attacks. Iran's strikes on energy and water infrastructure risk destabilizing a region heavily dependent on these lifelines.
Iran Warns Regional Countries
The IRGC warned regional countries to remain alert to US-Israeli destabilization attempts. The Khatam al-Anbiya spokesperson called to end the presence of the criminal American army and occupying Zionists. Repeated attacks have claimed lives and fueled international concern over the conflict spreading.
