On Wednesday, Iran conducted drone strikes on Kuwait International Airport, hitting fuel storage tanks and sparking a significant fire. Abdullah al-Rajhi, a spokesperson for Kuwait's General Directorate of Civil Aviation, described these attacks as "brazen" and confirmed no casualties occurred, according to India Times and AA.

The drone strikes resulted in a "large fire" at a facility operated by the Kuwait Aviation Fueling Company, which caused considerable damage, though no deaths or injuries were reported. Firefighting teams were promptly dispatched to control the situation, according to AA and Al Jazeera.

This drone strike is part of a wider series of Iranian attacks targeting critical infrastructure across the Gulf, amid escalating military conflicts related to ongoing US and Israeli airstrikes against Iran.
