Iran-Linked Strikes on Gulf Infrastructure: 135 Attacks on 84 Targets, Reuters Finds

A Reuters investigation documents at least 135 drone and missile attacks by Iran and its allies on 84 infrastructure targets across Gulf Arab states, including oil facilities, refineries, airports, power plants, and desalination systems. The strikes caused operational disruptions and economic losses, with official statements often attributing damage to intercepted munitions remnants, suggesting a deliberate campaign to pressure the USA. This represents a sustained, covertly acknowledged pattern of asymmetric warfare targeting critical civilian infrastructure.
