One killed and 63 injured in Kuwait Airport drone attack

Описание: Drones hit Kuwait airport as US and Iran trade strikes. Kuwait Airport closed and many injured after Tehran drone attack. One person has been killed and multiple people have been injured after an Iranian drone attack on Kuwait International Airport on Wednesday. The attack hit the T1 building at the international airport and flights were suspended or diverted to alternative airports, the report citing the General Civil Aviation Authority said. Bahrain’s army also reported intercepting Iranian drones and missiles this morning.
Kuwait had previously reported intercepting Iranian aircraft earlier this week. Iran’s foreign ministry condemned US attacks on an Iranian oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz and a telecommunications tower on Qeshm Island, saying they violated a ceasefire understanding as well as breaking international law. It said Kuwait and Bahrain bore “direct and clear responsibility” for the attacks and accused the countries of allowing the US to use their territory and facilities to launch attacks against Iran. The escalation comes as president Donald Trump called suggestions that the US and Iran are no longer holding peace talks “false and erroneous” and insisted the two countries have been speaking "continuously". Meanwhile, Tehran has said that the exchange of messages between Iranian and US negotiators ended days ago, according to state media.
