Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has claimed responsibility for a drone and missile attack targeting Kuwait’s Al-Adiri air base. According to a report by Fars News Agency, the IRGC stated that the strike destroyed a U.S. helicopter maintenance center, fuel tanks, and a command center located at the base.
Kuwait’s armed forces earlier reported that the country’s air defense systems had responded to incoming missile and drone attacks. Fars News further reported that a large fire broke out at the base following the assault, producing thick black smoke visible from a distance.
The incident marks a significant escalation in regional tensions, though no independent confirmation of the reported damage or casualties was provided in the source.
