Heavy damage to Kuwait airport
Iranian drones caused extensive damage to a passenger terminal at Kuwait’s main airport on Wednesday, killing one person and injuring at least 63 others and forcing the airport to be closed for a period of time.
This was the latest incident in an ongoing series of mutual attacks between Iran and the US. India’s Foreign Ministry confirmed that one of its citizens was killed and several others injured in the airport attack.
The Indian Embassy in Kuwait has said that it is in close coordination with the Kuwaiti authorities to provide all possible assistance and help to the affected families in India and those injured in the attack.
United States Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Tuesday said that the United States will not remove sanctions on Iran in exchange for a full reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, adding that any sanctions relief is conditioned on Iran giving up enriched uranium. The US military on Tuesday said that two Iranian missiles fired at Kuwait fell short or broke apart en route, and three missiles launched at Bahrain were intercepted by US and Bahrain forces. The Central Command further added that Iran launched ballistic missiles aiming at regional neighbors, but all failed to strike the targets.
