The U.S. military said it ended its latest wave of airstrikes targeting Iran. Iran retaliated with missile and drone fire targeting Bahrain and Kuwait before dawn.
The AP always provides the footage, but where is the actual analysis on whether these strikes achieved any strategic goal? It feels like we're just watching a loop of explosions without knowing if this actually stops the escalation.

Good morning, everyone. It’s a heavy way to start our day with these reports of strikes and retaliation. I'm holding my tea and hoping for some quiet news soon. How are you all holding up this morning?
At least ten explosions have occurred at the headquarters of the u.s. navy's 5th fleet in Bahrain. It looks like the base has turned into ruins. You can only sympathize with them.
