Why it matters
The attacks occurred in a region vital to global energy supplies, leading to concerns about a return to full-blown conflict. The escalation of hostilities and the targeting of critical infrastructure in oil-rich nations like Kuwait raises international pressure and impacts regional stability.
Mohsen Rezaei advised Iran's Supreme Leader on June 7, sharing condemnation of attacks and strikes.
