Gulf hostilities have flared again, with an Iranian missile attack damaging Kuwait's airport and the US military carrying out strikes near the Strait of Hormuz as diplomacy between Washington and Tehran show little progress.
The latest flare-up, which sent oil prices higher, comes with the conflict stalemated in a shaky ceasefire and the Strait of Hormuz largely closed, more than three months after initial US and Israeli strikes on Iran.
Flights at Kuwait International Airport were suspended and diverted elsewhere until further notice after an Iranian drone and missile attack one of its terminals.
