Kuwait briefly shut the country’s main airport Wednesday after Iranian drones heavily damaged a terminal building, killing one person and wounding dozens — the latest salvo in a series of back-and-forth attacks by Tehran and Washington that have tested a fragile ceasefire.
The strikes came as semiofficial Iranian news agencies said the country had stopped communicating with mediators about extending a ceasefire in the war with the U.S. and Israel. A regional official said Tehran wanted the truce in Lebanon enforced before returning to talks. U.S. President Donald Trump said negotiations were continuing.
The talks have dragged on for weeks, and repeated exchanges of strikes in the Gulf region and Israel’s broadening war in Lebanon are further straining the efforts.
“Israel’s broadening war” - they mean ethnic cleansing, right? Because Israel has been doing the “Gaza treatment” to the south of Lebanon and demolishing entire villages, churches, mosques, schools, etc.
Please tell me I’m on crazy pills. We’re trading attacks back and forth but there’s still a ceasefire in effect? 😖
Here’s how it works. If the US or Israel attack then the ceasefire is still in effect. If Iran attacks then it’s breached.
It seems most air travel is avoiding the Persian gulf right now. I often fly through the UAE and most routes are now going through Ethiopia or direct to Europe and then onward.
