Iran Launches Retaliatory Strikes Against Israel and Kuwait

Iran launched missiles and drones at Israel and Kuwait on April 4-5, 2026, in response to Trump’s 48-hour ultimatum. The attacks mark a significant escalation as the conflict spreads beyond Iran’s borders to Gulf states and Israel simultaneously.

Tel Aviv Under Attack

Iranian missile salvos targeted Tel Aviv, with shrapnel damaging a train station. Israeli air defenses intercepted most incoming missiles, but some got through. Four people were lightly injured and several buildings were damaged. An earlier Iranian missile strike had killed one civilian at a residential building in Tel Aviv when a cluster munition hit an unprotected area.

Kuwait Oil Infrastructure Targeted

The Kuwait Petroleum Corporation confirmed that its Mina al-Ahmadi refinery was hit by Iranian drones. A water desalination plant was also targeted. These attacks on Gulf state infrastructure represent a dangerous expansion of the conflict, threatening oil production in neighboring countries.

US and Israeli Response

US and Israeli warplanes continued striking targets inside Iran, hitting the Mahshahr Special Petrochemical Zone and striking near Iran’s Bushehr nuclear facility. Trump posted videos showing explosions in Tehran, claiming many Iranian military leaders died in a “massive strike.” The damaged Shahid Beheshti University in Tehran became a symbol of civilian infrastructure destruction.
