According to Kuwait's Defense Ministry spokesman and U.S. Central Command, on June 3 morning (local time), Iran launched drone and missile attacks on Kuwait International Airport's Terminal 1, killing at least one person and causing significant material and human casualties. Kuwait's Foreign Ministry condemned the attacks as "deliberate and unjustifiable" targeting of civilian infrastructure, while the airport suspended operations.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed the strikes were retaliation for U.S. military actions, including American strikes on a Iranian tanker on June 2. The U.S. Central Command countered that all Iranian attacks failed, describing them as "intentional and unjustifiable." Bahrain reported intercepting three Iranian missiles and multiple drones, calling the attacks systematic hostility violating international humanitarian law.
