Iran widened its military campaign across the Gulf on Sunday, launching missile and drone attacks against Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Jordan, and the United Arab Emirates.  

The regional barrage came just hours after the United States carried out a third round of airstrikes against Iranian targets in retaliation for attacks on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.  

Qatar’s military said in a statement it intercepted incoming Iranian fire, with explosions heard in neighboring United Arab Emirates. Three people, including a child, were wounded as a result of falling shrapnel from the interception of Iranian attacks, Qatar’s Interior Ministry said.

Meanwhile, missile alerts sounded for the third time on Sunday in Bahrain, home to the US Navy’s 5th Fleet. Kuwait’s military also said it was intercepting incoming fire.

The ⁠United Arab Emirates said its defense systems engaged missiles and drones from Iran. In a statement, the ministry of defense said the missile threats detected this morning were outside the country’s borders.
