Kuwait, UAE report new attacks from Iran following Trump’s ceasefire deal
Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates are reporting fresh attacks from the Iranian regime on Wednesday, just hours after President Donald Trump reached a 2-week ceasefire deal with Tehran.
A Kuwait defense ministry spokesperson said the country has been pushing back against “an intense wave of hostile Iranian criminal attacks”, intercepting 28 drones.
“The Kuwaiti Armed Forces succeeded in intercepting a large number of hostile drones, some of which targeted vital oil facilities and power stations in the south of the country, resulting in significant material damage to oil infrastructure facilities, power stations, and water desalination plants,” the spokesperson added.
Across the Strait of Hormuz, in the United Arab Emirates, its defense ministry said Wednesday that the UAE’s “air defenses are currently engaging with missile and drone attacks originating from Iran.”
“The Ministry of Defense confirms that the sounds heard in various parts of the country are the result of the UAE air defense systems intercepting ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones,” it also said.
