Impact verdict

Medium impact. Loss pathway: Multi-country interstate military escalation across JWC-listed war risk territories plus Iran, with confirmed Kuwaiti airspace closure/reopen cycle, carrier suspensions, and one reported civilian injury. Evidence: Two mainstream-media sources corroborate strikes, airspace status, and carrier suspensions. Limit: No confirmed damage to commercial, industrial, or energy assets and no insured loss figures; impact remains MEDIUM with active monitoring across aviation war, political violence, marine war, and energy lines.
