Iran targets Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and Israel

Apr 1, 2026, 06:48 GMT+1

The Islamic Republic launched missile and drone attacks in recent hours on Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and Israel.

Kuwait’s state news agency reported that an Iranian drone strike hit fuel tanks at Kuwait International Airport, causing a large fire but no casualties. Initial reports pointed only to material damage at facilities belonging to the Kuwait Aviation Fueling Company.

The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations said a vessel about 31 km north of Qatar’s Ras Laffan was hit by two projectiles, one of which did not explode. The other caused a fire on board that has since been brought under control.

Hours earlier, the same body said a tanker about 31 km north of Doha had been struck by an unidentified projectile, damaging the hull above the waterline. The crew was safe and no environmental impact was reported.

Bahrain’s interior ministry also reported a fire at a company facility following an Iranian attack but gave no further details.

Saudi Arabia’s defense ministry said two drones had been intercepted in recent hours.

The Israeli military said several missiles had been launched from Iran toward Israel and that interception efforts were under way. It also said a missile had been fired at Israel from Yemen.
