Kuwait Holds Emergency Consultations Amid Fears of Intense War with Iran
Kuwait is preparing for the possibility of a severe war against Iran, according to a Kuwaiti official close to the government who spoke to Israeli reporter Roy Kais on Kan 11 on Monday evening. The official cited Iran's excessive demands, extreme rhetoric, and the growing influence of hardliners within its leadership as indicators that Tehran is moving toward escalation. Kuwait is conducting consultations with its allies and other Gulf states regarding this threat.
International media reports suggest that Iran and its regional proxies are shifting from a defensive posture to offensive operations, including potential actions on enemy territory. This development has raised significant concern in the Gulf, particularly in Kuwait, which was central to the last round of escalations.
Meanwhile, Iranian activity continues across multiple fronts. Hezbollah, under Iranian guidance, is intensifying operations against Israel to disrupt direct negotiations between Lebanon and Israel. Additionally, earlier on Monday, Iranian drones struck the office of the Kurdish regional prime minister in northern Iraq, marking an unusual attack.
These developments underscore rising tensions in the region and the potential for broader conflict involving Iran and its adversaries.
