On June 3, 2026, Gulf tensions intensified as Iran launched a missile attack on Kuwait's airport, causing damage and casualties, while the US conducted strikes near the Strait of Hormuz. This escalation occurred despite a shaky ceasefire that has been in place since late February following initial US and Israeli strikes on Iran. Kuwait International Airport suspended flights after the attack killed one person and injured at least 63. Bahrain reported intercepting missiles and drones targeting its soil. The US military confirmed that some Iranian missiles failed to reach their targets. US President Donald Trump stated that Iran had agreed to forgo nuclear weapons and suggested a potential meeting with Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, though diplomatic progress remains fragile, with Iran warning against US overreach.
