Kuwaiti power plant and Iranian bridges bombed as conflict escalates across region

In the ongoing conflict between the US and Iran, a power plant in Kuwait and five bridges in Iran have been targeted in escalating attacks. The US launched airstrikes against Iranian military logistics infrastructure, prompting Iran to retaliate with missile strikes on US bases in multiple countries, including Jordan, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman, and Syria. Iran claimed to have attacked a former US base in Syria and damaged radar systems. Kuwait reported damage to a desalination and electricity plant, marking Iran's first direct strike on power infrastructure since the conflict resumed. The attacks have intensified tensions, undermining efforts to de-escalate the situation. Recent strikes have affected civilian areas, including airports and naval personnel, while Iraqi Kurdish militias report casualties attributed to Iranian actions.
