4:37Now PlayingThe US and Iran clashed again overnight, with Kuwait and Bahrain caught in the crossfire of the most serious flare-up since a ceasefire went into effect in early April.
The developments follow days of rising tension, including over Israeli operations against Tehran-backed Hezbollah militants in Lebanon, that threaten to derail US-Iran talks about an interim peace deal. The sides have agreed on a rough framework that should extend their truce by two months and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, though negotiations over the final details are dragging on.
Shortly after hitting an empty oil tanker heading to Iran, the US military said it came under missile and drone attack. Iran targeted the US’s main naval base in the region, located in Bahrain, and the Ali Al-Salem airbase in Kuwait. For more, we speak with Ethan Bronner, Bloomberg News Israel Bureau Chief.
