But that doesn’t mean Iran’s retaliatory missiles and drones on America’s Gulf allies have halted. On Thursday, Kuwait has announced its\u00a0air defenses continue to be active<\/strong>, confronting inbound assaults by\u00a0“hostile drones”.<\/p>\n “The General Staff of the Army notes that any explosion sounds heard are the result of air defense systems intercepting the hostile attacks,” the Kuwaiti military said in a statement, blasting “the sinful Iranian aggression.” It added: “Everyone is requested to adhere to the security and safety instructions issued by the competent authorities.”<\/p>\n After five consecutive days of US attack waves, the Iranian military has yet to show signs of backing off its assertions of ‘control’ over the Strait of Hormuz, and its military has newly\u00a0warned<\/a>\u00a0that the energy transit waterway is\u00a0an “unbreakable red line”\u00a0<\/strong>which it will enforce.<\/p>\n On Wednesday President Trump warned that if Iran doesn’t come back to the negotiating table – while relinquishing control of Hormuz – that by next week strikes will expand to include civic and energy infrastructure, such as bridges.<\/p>\n Tehran has in turn counter-threatened to destroy\u00a0“all infrastructure throughout the region”<\/strong>\u00a0if Trump acts on this threat to attack Iran’s vital infrastructure cites.<\/p>\n New: \u201cInfrastructure for Infrastructure\u201d – Iran\u2019s Khatam Al-Anbiya Joint HQ Colonel Ibrahim Zolfaghari:<\/em><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/files.zhedge.com\/cdn-cgi\/image\/width=1920,quality=75,format=auto\/https:\/\/assets.zerohedge.com\/s3fs-public\/inline-images\/gulfattc.jpg\")
