What to know about the Iran war today:
- Iran on Sunday launched drone and missile attacks targeting Bahrain and Kuwait in response to U.S. airstrikes that hit the Islamic Republic, and threatened a "complete halt" could come to negotiations to end the war if Washington continues its attacks.
- U.S. forces struck Iranian targets again on Sunday local time, U.S. Central Command said. The new strikes follow Bahrain's claim that Iranian drones struck the Gulf state Saturday after U.S. retaliatory strikes on Iran and an earlier attack on a cargo vessel in the Strait of Hormuz.
- President Trump on Saturday threatened that the U.S. military will "complete the job" if Iran doesn't comply with the ceasefire, though Tehran and Washington appear to remain at odds on even basic points in their memorandum of understanding, including control of the strait and how Iran will spend its unfrozen funds.
