In late March 2026, tensions escalated in the Gulf region as Iran launched attacks across the area, including a strike on a power and desalination plant in Kuwait that killed an Indian worker. Gulf states reported intercepting drones and missiles amidst the ongoing conflict. Simultaneously, United States President Donald Trump stated his desire to "take the oil in Iran" during an interview.
