Amid a rapidly evolving security situation in West Asia, the Kuwaiti Army on Wednesday said accused Iran of hostile drone attacks, which left several people injured and targeted the passenger building at the Kuwait International Airport. Meanwhile, Iranian state broadcaster Press TV claimed that the IRGC carried out retaliatory strikes against the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain.
In a post on X, the Official Spokesman for the Ministry of Defence, Brigadier General Saud Abdulaziz Al-Otaibi, stated that a number of hostile drones targeted today the passenger building (T1) at Kuwait International Airport as a result of the "criminal Iranian aggression", which resulted in significant material damage to the building and injuries to a number of individuals, who received the necessary medical care.
