The latest stories from the global superpower with far-reaching political, economic and cultural influence

Kuwaiti security officers stand beneath a screen displaying portraits of the Emir of Kuwait Sheikh Meshal al-Ahmad al-Jaber al-Sabah (R) and the Kuwaiti crown prince Sheikh Sabah al-Khaled al-Hamad al-Sabah, alongside the words "Pride and Glory", at Kuwait International Airport in Kuwait City on June 1, 2026, as the airport resumes operations following a phased reopening plan. The airport has resumed receiving and operating flights by Arab and international airlines under a phased reopening plan, following repair and upgrade works completed after the Iranian attacks on the Gulf state. During more than a month of war, Iran has responded to US and Israeli strikes that decapitated its leadership by launching drone and missile attacks across the Gulf. Iran has targeted US embassies, bases and assets but also airports, major oil and gas infrastructure as well as landmarks, ports, hotels and residential areas. (Photo by YASSER AL-ZAYYAT / AFP)
