## Prediction

Over seven days, at least one US-hosting state among Bahrain, Kuwait, and Jordan is likely to quietly restrict certain high-visibility or offensive operations from its territory in response to Iranian strikes and domestic political pressure. While formal basing agreements will remain intact, governments may ask Washington to limit sortie types, munitions stockpiling, or publicized deployments. This will complicate US targeting and logistics, increasing reliance on offshore assets and other regional bases. Confirmation would be leaks or US statements about shifting operations or assets away from a specific base; denial would be public reaffirmations combined with visible continued offensive operations from those same facilities.

## Drivers

- Iranian missile and drone attacks on US-linked bases in Bahrain, Kuwait, and Jordan
- Emerging trend: Iran’s regional strike reach testing host-nation tolerance
- High domestic sensitivity in small Gulf monarchies to being seen as war launchpads
