After the latest missile attacks by Iran in the Middle East, a huge crisis has arisen in the aviation sector and air travel routes of the whole world. After the war situation in the Persian Gulf, many countries have taken unprecedented and strict precautionary measures keeping international security in mind. According to international media reports, the Bahrain government has completely closed its airspace to civilian aircraft amid the sudden increase in tension in the region. Along with this, aviation services in United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Kuwait have also been badly affected. On Wednesday morning, the US Army issued a big statement saying that many of Iran’s dangerous missiles fired towards Kuwait and Bahrain either failed due to technical fault or were shot down in the air by state-of-the-art defense systems. Immediately after this attack, the US Air Force entered Iran and launched a devastating counterattack on its military bases.
America bombed Iran’s military ground control station on Qeshm Island.
US Central Command (CENTCOM), while confirming this retaliatory military action, said that American fighter planes have carried out a massive bombardment on Iran’s Qeshm Island, located near the strategically sensitive Strait of Hormuz. In the American attacks, a major military ground control station of Iran present there has been completely destroyed, where a large desalination plant (water desalination plant) was also located. According to US officials, this latest and deadly attack took place after Iran reportedly suddenly unilaterally ended brokered talks with the US regarding extending the ongoing ceasefire. However, US President Donald Trump completely rejected this claim and said in Washington that behind-the-scenes talks between the two countries are still going on.
