US bombs Iranian military sites; Kuwait hit by drone, missile fire

The US struck Iranian radar and drone control sites near Geruk and Qeshm Island after Tehran downed an American MQ-1 Predator drone; Iran counter-struck, with Kuwait intercepting incoming drone and missile fire. Iran's continued chokehold on the Strait of Hormuz — through which a fifth of global oil and gas flows — keeps energy price volatility high, a direct input cost risk for any infrastructure and cloud budget planning.
