Kuwait said on Wednesday it had suspended commercial flights after an Iranian drone attack hit the country’s airport, wounding a number of people.
Defence Ministry spokesperson Brig Gen Saud Abdulaziz Al-Otaibi said “a number of hostile drones” had targeted Kuwait International Airport’s passenger building, severely damaging the building and injuring “a number of individuals”.
The drone attack came after Iran and the United States traded missile strikes late Tuesday, with the US military saying it had launched strikes on an Iranian military facility in retaliation for Iranian missiles fired at Kuwait and Bahrain.
