Iran's IRGC Claims New Attacks on US Military Sites in Kuwait

By TrendingWire Newsroom

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has announced that it struck additional US military infrastructure in Kuwait, according to Iran's state news agency IRNA. The IRGC said the attacks targeted drones, missile defense systems, radars, and satellite reception equipment, which were reportedly hit and destroyed. An MQ-9 drone hangar at the Ali al-Salem airbase was also claimed to be among the targets. The statement did not provide a timeline for the strikes or mention any casualties. Kuwait hosts US military forces as part of longstanding defense cooperation between the two countries. The US has not yet confirmed or commented on the alleged attacks. This development comes amid ongoing tensions between Iran and the US over various issues, including Iran's nuclear program and regional military activities. The IRGC has previously claimed attacks on US assets in the region, though some claims have been disputed. Analysts note that such statements often serve as propaganda and may not always reflect actual events. Kuwaiti authorities have not issued an official response. The situation remains under monitoring.
