Gulf Tensions Escalate as Iran Targets Kuwait Infrastructure, Bahrain Intercepts Aerial Threats

Iran has reportedly targeted a second power plant in Kuwait, while Bahrain says its air defence systems successfully intercepted and repelled aerial attacks, raising fresh concerns over escalating tensions in the Gulf region.
