Drones packed with explosives slammed into Irbil and triggered air raid sirens in Bahrain—luckily, U.S. forces intercepted most, avoiding injuries or damage. Just hours after CENTCOM completed its 13th straight night of strikes on Iran’s military infrastructure to secure the Strait of Hormuz, Tehran retaliated by claiming drone attacks on U.S. bases in Bahrain, Jordan, and Kuwait—and warned any U.S. base used to strike Iran would be fair game. Despite the escalation, commercial ships continue flowing through the vital chokepoint, backed by U.S. forces, as over 50,000 American troops remain deployed across the Middle East. With the Strait handling a fifth of global oil and gas, any prolonged disruption could send energy prices soaring and shake the global economy.
