Iran launched multiple missile and drone attacks on US military bases in Kuwait and Bahrain on Wednesday. Kuwait’s airport also suffered heavy damage in these attacks. Giving information about this, Kuwait has said that commercial flights have been suspended after an Iranian drone attack on the country’s airport. Many people have been injured in this attack.
Defense Ministry spokesman Brigadier General Saud Abdulaziz al-Otaibi said that several enemy drones have targeted the passenger building of Kuwait International Airport. The attack caused serious damage to the building and injured several persons.
Iran fired missiles at American military bases
This drone attack took place after missile attacks between Iran and America late on Tuesday night. The US military said it had struck an Iranian military facility on Qeshm Island in response to missiles fired by Iran at Kuwait and Bahrain.
However, the US claimed that its forces had foiled a series of Iranian missile and drone attacks targeting neighboring countries in the region. US Central Command said in an official statement that Tehran had launched a wave of airstrikes in the region. The military command said Iran fired several ballistic missiles toward its regional neighbors. However, all failed to hit their targets.
IRGC warned
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has issued a warning to America after these attacks. The IRGC said Tehran’s retaliatory attacks should serve as a lesson for the US. The Public Relations Department of IRGC said this on the overnight attacks in West Asian countries. “Late last night, US forces launched a missile attack on an Iranian oil tanker near the Strait of Hormuz, causing damage to the tanker’s engine room,” the statement said.
The IRGC said that in response to this aggression and violation of the rules governing the Strait of Hormuz, a ship named Panaya belonging to the American-Jewish enemy was targeted by missiles fired by the IRGC Navy. The statement said that the US military then targeted an IRGC communication tower located on Qeshm Island.

“In response, the IRGC Aerospace Force launched missile and drone strikes against their air base and helicopter base in a country in the region, as well as the headquarters of the US Fifth Fleet,” the statement added. The IRGC said that we had already warned that any kind of aggression would be responded to in a different and more serious way.
