One Indian national was killed and 63 people were injured following Iranian missile and drone attacks on the Kuwait International Airport in the early hours of Wednesday, according to reports.
Iranian attacks have knocked out 17% of Qatar's liquefied natural gas (LNG) export capacity, causing an estimated $20 billion in lost annual revenue and threatening supplies to Europe and Asia, QatarEnergy's CEO and state minister for energy affairs told Reuters.
Iran’s attacks on GCC countries, and the resulting closure of airspace and main shipping route, are unlikely to affect the existing ratings of state-owned companies in the region. This reflects the strong likelihood that the governments will support their key operating companies, according to Fitch Ratings.
