Now to the latest on the war with Iran.
The Pentagon reporting overnight that it shut down a wave of Iranian drones targeting US forces in Kuwait.

And these are some of the most intense strikes that we have seen in weeks.
The US and Iran overnight trading heavy fire after the US struck an empty oil tanker that it said was trying to breach its blockade.
That then set off a string of attacks by both sides with Iran firing ballistic missiles at neighboring US military bases in Bahrain and Kuwait.
This video released by the Iranian military claiming to show those strikes.

The video circulating online showing the aftermath, the debris, and multiple fires.
