Iran again launched drone and missile attacks targeting Bahrain and Kuwait on Sunday following new US airstrikes against the Islamic Republic, and threatened a ‘complete halt’ in negotiations to end the war if Washington continues its attacks.
US Strikes Target Iranian Military Infrastructure
The US military said it struck Iranian military ‘surveillance infrastructure, communication systems, air defense sites, drone storage facilities and minelayer capabilities’ following an attack on a ship on Saturday.
Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard claimed responsibility for the attacks in Bahrain and Kuwait. Kuwait, which hosts a major US military base, said air defenses intercepted Iranian drones and two missiles just after the US strikes in Iran.
Bahrain said the Iranian strikes damaged a residential building near the international airport and no one was killed. Bahrain is home to the US Navy’s 5th Fleet.
US-Iran Talks to Resume
Pakistan, a key mediator, has said talks would resume Tuesday between the US and Iran on the terms of their interim deal. The Trump administration on Sunday said nothing has been canceled and technical talks are on track for the coming days.
Talks include arrangements around the Strait of Hormuz, the removal of a US blockade on Iranian ports and sanctions on Iran, and the future of Iran’s stockpile of highly enriched uranium.
