The ongoing war involving Iran, Israel, and the United States continues to escalate as fresh drone and missile attacks have been reported across the Gulf region. One of the latest developments is a major drone strike targeting Kuwait International Airport, where Iran allegedly attacked the airport’s radar system. According to the Directorate General of Civil Aviation Kuwait, the radar system at the airport was severely damaged in the strike. Meanwhile, reports from US media suggest that Israel is facing a shortage of missile interceptor systems used to stop Iranian ballistic missiles. Israeli officials have reportedly informed the United States that stocks of long-range defense interceptors are running low as Iranian attacks continue. Iran has also launched fresh ballistic missile strikes targeting Israeli positions, including the strategic Ben Gurion Airport. Explosions and defense sirens were reported around the airport area as Israel’s air defense systems attempted to intercept incoming missiles. In the West Bank, particularly near Ramallah, fires reportedly broke out following missile impacts, causing damage in residential areas. The attacks are believed to be part of the 50th wave of strikes launched by Iran using drones and missiles. At the same time, Iranian forces reportedly targeted US-linked military facilities in Iraq. A strike near Erbil hit an oil refinery, triggering a massive fire visible from several kilometers away. Earlier attacks were also reported in Baghdad, where a drone strike allegedly destroyed a power station. The financial cost of the conflict is also rising sharply. Reports indicate that the United States is spending nearly ₹1,800 crore per day on the war effort. While an Iranian drone is estimated to cost around ₹50 lakh, an American interceptor missile can cost nearly ₹25 crore, making the conflict extremely expensive for Washington.
