Kuwait International Airport was hit by another drone attack on April 2, 2026, which Kuwaiti authorities claimed was carried out by Iran. The strike triggered a massive fire at the airport’s fuel depot, according to the country’s Civil Aviation Authority. CNN reported that the attack caused extensive damage to fuel tanks, though no casualties were reported. On the same day, Bahrain also reported a drone attack.

Abdullah Al-Rajhi, spokesperson for Kuwait’s General Authority of Civil Aviation, said the drones targeted the airport’s fuel tanks, leading to a large blaze at the site. In Bahrain, the Interior Ministry confirmed that emergency teams were working to extinguish a fire at a company facility following what it described as an Iranian drone strike.

Authorities in both countries are assessing the damage, and no immediate information was available about potential disruptions to airport operations or further security measures.
