The US announced the end of the fourth wave of strikes on Iran within a week, but Iran continued missile launches, triggering sirens in Bahrain for the third time in 24 hours. Missiles were also fired at Jordan, Oman, and Kuwait. Satellite imagery showed damage to the US Fifth Fleet base in Qatar. Oil prices rose 4% and Asian stock markets fell.
Iran launched a new wave of missiles at Bahrain, Jordan, Oman, and Kuwait on Monday morning, hours after the United States announced the conclusion of its fourth wave of strikes on Iranian military targets within a week. Sirens sounded in Bahrain for the third time in 24 hours, according to reports. Satellite imagery reviewed by analysts showed damage to the US Fifth Fleet naval base in Qatar and a strategic base in Qatar. The attacks mark the latest escalation in the ongoing US-Iran conflict, which has seen multiple rounds of American airstrikes on Iranian air defenses, missile sites, and naval infrastructure. Iran has retaliated with missile and drone launches targeting US allies in the Gulf region. The economic impact was immediate: oil prices surged 4% in early trading, and Asian stock markets fell sharply. The US has not announced any further waves, but the cycle of strikes and retaliation appears to continue.
