DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) \u2014 Iran\u2019s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard launched drone and missile attacks Sunday targeting Bahrain and Kuwait in response to U.S. airstrikes that hit the Islamic Republic, and threatened a \u201ccomplete halt\u201d could come to negotiations to end the war if Washington continues its attacks.<\/p>\n

Efforts to reopen the Strait of Hormuz without Iran\u2019s direct oversight sparked the crossfire now gripping the region. A multinational maritime body overseen by the U.S. Navy said Saturday that it would expand a route near Oman to allow for both inbound and outbound traffic, setting up a new flashpoint with Tehran. <\/p>\n

Iran insists that after the war it alone must govern the strait, the narrow mouth of the Persian Gulf that once carried a fifth of the world\u2019s oil and natural gas. The global community has long considered the strait an international passageway, despite its sitting in Iran and Oman\u2019s territorial waters. In recent days, Tehran has twice attacked vessels going through a route on the Omani side of the strait backed by a United Nations agency.<\/p>\n

Strikes target Gulf states hosting US military<\/h3>\n

The Kuwaiti military said air defenses intercepted incoming Iranian drones and missiles Sunday morning, just after the U.S. strikes.<\/p>\n

Kuwait, which hosts a major U.S. army base, did not immediately share information on damage. <\/p>\n

Bahrain\u2019s Interior Ministry said the Iranian strikes damaged a residential building near the international airport and no one was killed. The ministry released photos of an 8-story building, with the top floor completely destroyed, filled with rubble and its windows blown out.<\/p>\n

Bahrain is home to the U.S. Navy\u2019s 5th Fleet, whose base there came under repeated attack during the war. The damaged building on Sunday was not near the fleet\u2019s headquarters, in downtown Manama.<\/p>\n

Bahrain\u2019s Foreign Ministry issued a statement denouncing what it called \u201ca dangerous escalation that reveals that what Tehran is doing is not a passing act, nor an isolated incident, but rather a deliberate approach and a systematic pattern of repeated aggression against the sovereignty of the kingdom, and the security of its citizens and residents.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump accuses Iran of violating ceasefire with ship attack<\/h3>\n

The strikes came after the US and Iran traded attacks over the weekend. The U.S. military\u2019s Central Command said it struck Iranian military \u201csurveillance infrastructure, communication systems, air defense sites, drone storage facilities and minelayer capabilities\u201d on Sunday, following an attack on a ship at sea early Saturday morning. That ship, the Panamanian-flagged tanker Kiku, carried crude oil for the state-run energy company of Qatar, a key negotiator between Iran and the United States.<\/p>\n

In a social media post, Trump said the U.S. had \u201cstruck Iranian missile and drone storage locations, and coastal radar sites, for violating the Cease Fire Agreement, AGAIN!\u201d He warned of a point where the U.S. may no longer be able to be reasonable \u201cand will be forced to militarily complete the job.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf that happens, the Islamic Republic of Iran will no longer exist!\u201d Trump wrote on Truth Social.<\/p>\n

The incident follows a similar back-and-forth that occurred just days prior, when an Iranian drone struck a merchant vessel off the coast of Oman on Thursday, and the U.S. military retaliated with strikes<\/p>\n

Iran and US trade accusations of ceasefire violations<\/h3>\n

The Guard claimed responsibility for both attacks, saying it targeted Al Asad Air Base in Kuwait. <\/p>\n

\u201cLet the enemy know that violating the ceasefire \u2026 will lead to a complete halt of ongoing processes,\u201d the Guard added.<\/p>\n

The Guard, which controls Iran\u2019s ballistic missile arsenal, answers only to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei and is thought to be wielding even greater influence now in the Islamic Republic. <\/p>\n

The U.S. military said that \u201cIran had a chance to honor the ceasefire agreement\u201d but \u201celected not to\u201d when its forces attacked the Kiku.<\/p>\n

According to ship-tracking websites, the Kiku left a Qatari oil field in the middle of the Persian Gulf earlier in the week and was bound for a port in the United Arab Emirates that sits on the Gulf of Oman, just on the other side of the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n

It appeared to be attempting to use a route established near the coast of Oman, serving as an alternative to the route sanctioned by Iran that runs through its own waters.<\/p>\n
