Al Jazeera reported a car accident in Kuwait City on 3 June 2026 during Iranian missile and drone launches toward US installations, with Kuwaiti forces intercepting projectiles. Times of India reported that US forces disabled the unladen Botswana-flagged tanker M/T Lexie with a Hellfire missile on or before that date as part of operations that began 13 April, disabling six vessels and redirecting 122 others while continuing alongside a ceasefire. Both outlets cite official statements and video releases but provide no independent verification of linkages between the events.
