Iran conducted coordinated strikes across multiple Gulf countries using missiles and drones, targeting US assets and energy infrastructure in retaliation for prior attacks. Bahrain's state oil company Bapco declared force majeure after its refinery caught fire during the assault. Saudi Arabia intercepted drones aimed at the Shaybah oilfield, while the UAE, Qatar, and Kuwait reported missile attacks. At least two people died and twelve were injured in Saudi Arabia's al-Kharj governorate. Bahrain reported 32 injured citizens, including children, in Sitra. Regional airspace closures and disrupted oil production followed the escalation. Qatar called for de-escalation as Gulf states condemned Iran's continued strikes.
