The Wall Street Journal, citing people familiar with the matter, reports that Bahrain and Kuwait secretly conducted airstrikes against military targets inside Iran earlier this month, the first known direct retaliatory strikes by either country against Iran. According to the report, the strikes targeted drone and missile storage sites, while the United Arab Emirates provided intelligence and defensive air cover. The operation reportedly followed weeks of Iranian attacks on Bahrain and Kuwait, both of which host U.S. military bases. Kuwait's ambassador to the United States denied the report, stating that Kuwait neither participated in military operations against Iran nor allowed its territory to be used for offensive operations against a neighboring state, after the article was initially published.
