Iran and the United States traded blows for the sixth day with Tehran warning it would obliterate all remaining infrastructure in the region as Washington launched a new wave of strikes.

Kuwait, Bahrain and Jordan were among the countries that continued to thwart Iranian retaliatory attacks, with Jordanian air defenses saying they had downed at least eight missiles launched from Iran on Thursday.

The US Central Command, or CENTCOM, said it ended an evening wave of strikes against Iran at 9 pm Eastern Time on Wednesday.
