Iran says it targeted US military infrastructure in strikes on Kuwait
Iran says it targeted US military infrastructure in Kuwait in response to American attacks on the Islamic Republic.
Iran says it deployed drones in Kuwait to target “the deployment sites of US forces and the logistical support centers of the ‘terrorist’ and ‘child-killing’ US military,” Iranian state TV reports.
“The attacks were in response to the crimes of the arrogant enemy and in revenge for the blood of the martyrs of the homeland,” it adds.
Kuwait said earlier it was responding to missile and drone attacks, a day after the Gulf nation faced aerial attacks from Iran. Gulf nations Bahrain and Qatar also reported attacks early this morning as well.
