The United States and Israel have repeatedly attacked Iran’s oil and gas infrastructure. In retaliation, Tehran is targeting critical infrastructure in Gulf Arab countries that support Washington and Tel Aviv. On Tuesday morning (April 7), Saudi Arabia’s Defense Ministry said it had intercepted seven ballistic missiles in the country’s east.
\nThe east is crucial for Saudi Arabia, as about 70 percent of the country’s oil facilities are located here. After the missiles were intercepted, their debris fell around these oil fields, causing production to stop. Shortly after, a warning signal was issued in the east and the King Fahd Bridge authority temporarily closed the bridge.
\nThe bridge is even more important because it connects Saudi Arabia to Bahrain. A few days ago, after the attack on Iran’s B-1 bridge, a list was published in Iranian media, where 10 bridges in the region were mentioned as targets. King Fahd Bridge was also on that list. The Sheikh Jaber Causeway in Kuwait, one of the longest bridges in the Middle East, was also on the list.
\nThese events prove that this war is a \u201cretaliatory\u201d war. When Israel and the United States attack Iran, Iran retaliates against the Gulf countries. The Gulf countries are the ones who are suffering the most in this conflict.
\nSeveral warning signals were heard in Bahrain this morning, and a similar warning was issued in the United Arab Emirates a few hours ago. The Saudi Defense Ministry also said that Iran had launched at least 18 drone attacks in just a few hours. However, all of them were repelled.<\/p>\n
