The Kuwaiti army said Saturday it had detected and destroyed ‘’hostile’’ drones in the country’s airspace since dawn, adding that an attack it attributed to Iran had targeted several strategic sites, Reuters reported.
A government facility in northern Kuwait and civilian property belonging to a company on Boubyan Island were hit, the army said. Falling debris caused property damage but no casualties, it added.
Kuwait has been repeatedly targeted by Iranian attacks since the start of the U.S.-Israeli war. The latest escalation over the past three weeks, following a lull during negotiations, has once again placed Kuwait, along with other Gulf countries, at the center of the conflict.
