Iran strikes U.S. base in Syria and Kuwaiti utility plants
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps launched retaliatory strikes against the al-Tanf air base in Syria. They also claimed to hit a U.S. Special Forces command center in the country. These attacks followed a U.S. strike on an Iranian barracks in Iranshahr. U.S. officials have not confirmed casualties. The IRGC claims these surprise strikes targeted military facilities across the region. Hostilities expanded to civilian infrastructure as Iran targeted desalination and electricity plants in Kuwait. Analysts warned that the situation in the Strait of Hormuz has returned to a worst case scenario. This escalation occurs as U.S. forces continue daily airstrikes inside Iran following the collapse of a previous ceasefire.
