Kuwait International Airport suspended operations following an attack that damaged airport facilities and diplomatic sites, killing one person and injuring more than 60. Kuwaiti authorities attributed the strike to Iranian drones and missiles, while Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps denied responsibility and claimed U.S. Patriot defense systems mistakenly caused the destruction while intercepting incoming missiles. The U.S. military also conducted strikes near the Strait of Hormuz as diplomatic efforts to end the conflict showed little progress. Flight operations were later partially restored after safety assessments, while rising tensions pushed oil prices up more than 2% amid ongoing disruption in the region.
