as posted by the channel

US Central Command confirmed that Iran fired a ballistic missile toward Kuwait overnight, which was intercepted.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps earlier said it launched an attack targeting an American air base, claiming it was the source of US strikes.

According to a US official, those strikes targeted Iranian drones and a launch site around the Strait of Hormuz.

CNN’s Kevin Liptak has the details, while CNN political and global affairs analyst Sabrina Singh says the increased kinetic action between the US and Iran is straining any potential peace deals. Also, CNN political and national security analyst David Sanger explains why the Iranians may be OK with the current status quo.
