What happened
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced that the 24th wave of Operation Nasr-2 targeted and disabled multiple American radar systems in Kuwait as part of its ongoing retaliatory strikes against US presence in the region. The strikes focused on infrastructure integral to US military air defense operations in Kuwait. This included a long-range radar installation, a communications hub, satellite reception systems, and a missile defense radar at a base in Kuwait.
Why it matters
The regional escalation, including the potential closure of the Strait of Hormuz, poses a significant risk to global markets. Such prolonged instability could send shockwaves through global energy markets, increase shipping costs, and raise insurance premiums.
The series of retaliatory strikes by the IRGC against US bases in the region has been ongoing, affecting Bahrain, Jordan, and Kuwait.
