Infrastructure damaged in multiple drone and missile attacks across the Gulf

On April 5, 2026, amid the ongoing sixth week of conflict between Iran, Israel, and the United States, several facilities in the Gulf region sustained damage from drone and missile strikes. In Kuwait, the Kuwait Petroleum Corporation reported fires at operational units in the Mina al-Ahmadi refinery and at an office complex in the Shuwaikh district. Additionally, Kuwaiti officials confirmed that two power and water desalination plants were struck, resulting in their temporary removal from service. In Bahrain, Bapco Energies reported that a storage tank at a facility caught fire following an Iranian attack. Reports from the region also indicate that falling debris from intercepted missiles caused a fire at the Habshan gas facility in Abu Dhabi. While Saudi Arabia reported the successful interception of multiple drones on Friday, regional security remains highly volatile. Despite the significant material damage reported across these sites, authorities in Kuwait and Bahrain confirmed that there were no casualties. Emergency teams in all affected areas were deployed to contain fires and assess the scale of the damage.
