  • Explainer: Why three disputed islands matter in the Strait of Hormuz

    Explainer: Why three disputed islands matter in the Strait of Hormuz
    Jul 16 2026
    US strikes have targeted military infrastructure on Greater Tunb, one of three disputed islands in the Strait of Hormuz claimed by both Iran and the UAE. Washington says the strikes hit cruise missile storage and coastal defence systems, aiming to curb Iran's ability to threaten shipping in the vital waterway. The islands, Greater Tunb, Lesser Tunb and Abu Musa, have been under Iranian control since 1971, despite claims from the UAE's Sharjah and Ras al-Khaimah emirates. Their strategic position, roughly 70 kilometres from Iran's coast, allows Tehran to monitor and threaten one of the world's busiest shipping routes. Al Jazeera’s Lina Abu Akleh reports.

  • Ukraine says Russian forces hit a civilian vessel near port of Odesa

    Ukraine says Russian forces hit a civilian vessel near port of Odesa
    Jul 14 2026
    Ukraine says Russian forces have struck a civilian vessel near the port of Odesa. The Ukrainian navy spokesman says there were no casualties. A ship can be seen ablaze in the area, but it is not clear whether it is the same vessel officials said had been hit. Meanwhile, Ukraine's military says it targeted two oil refineries overnight. The army's chief of staff said on social media that the strikes sparked fires at both energy facilities. Ukraine has stepped up drone attacks on Russian oil refineries in recent months, causing fuel shortages across Russia. Al Jazeera’s Audrey Macalpine reports from Kyiv, Ukraine.

  • Iran expands attacks across the Gulf as Kuwait and Bahrain report missile and drone threats

    Iran expands attacks across the Gulf as Kuwait and Bahrain report missile and drone threats
    Jul 14 2026
    Sirens are sounding across the Gulf region as the pace of Iranian attacks appears to be ticking up. Kuwait and Bahrain say they are currently dealing with multiple missile and drone attacks in their airspace from Iran. Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan came under attack on Tuesday morning from Iran. In the last few hours, details have emerged of three vessels attacked on Monday night by cruise missiles from Iran. The Oman Security Maritime Centre says three crew members are still missing from the Al Bahyah vessel, an Emirati owned ship. From the Mombasa B vessel, one person was killed and eight others injured. Gulf leaders continue to condemn what they call Iran's aggression, saying it is a blatant violation of their sovereignty and a breach of international law. Jordan's Defence Ministry reiterated that the country will not become a battlefield and that US forces hosted in Jordan are not taking part in any attacks on Iran. Oman's foreign minister said the region is being dragged into a war it did not ask to be part of and that the region is "wounded". Al Jazeera's Victoria Gatenby reports from Doha.
