The US military announced that it conducted new airstrikes against Iran in retaliation for an Iranian attack on a base in Jordan that resulted in the deaths of two American soldiers. US Central Command stated that the strikes aimed to degrade Iran's capability to restrict tanker traffic in the Strait of Hormuz. Since the beginning of the war, a total of 16 American military personnel have lost their lives, and more than 430 soldiers have been wounded.
Iran's supreme leader warned that "unforgettable lessons" would be taught if US attacks continue. A senior Iranian official announced the suspension of a provisional agreement, signed about a month ago, aimed at permanently ending the conflicts. The Gulf Cooperation Council classified Iran's targeting of civilian infrastructure as a war crime.
As the conflicts continue to spread in the region, drone attacks were carried out on the city of Erbil, Iraq, and water treatment plants and oil facilities in Kuwait were hit. Because Kuwait meets 90 percent of its water needs through treatment, these attacks pose a major threat to the country. Kuwaiti airspace was temporarily closed due to missile threats, while it was also reported that air defense systems in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia intercepted Iranian missiles.
