Iran live updates: Iran targets US forces, Kuwait airport amid ceasefire

One person was killed and several other people injured after Iranian missiles and drones attacked Kuwait early on Wednesday, Kuwait's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.

Iran fired missiles and drones targeting "civilian and vital facilities, including Kuwait International Airport, resulting in the death of one individual, injuries to others, and damage to vital facilities, including diplomatic missions," the statement said.

The attack occurred at dawn local time, according to the ministry's statement.

The ministry denounced "Iran's overt aggressive attacks, which lead to increased escalation, heightened tension, and undermine the security and stability of the region."

Kuwait's General Authority of Civil Aviation said that Kuwait Airways flights will resume operations from Kuwait International Airport on Wednesday.

The decision was taken after field inspections and technical evaluations "to ensure the terminal's readiness to receive flights and passengers," the authority said.

The Kuwaiti army's General Staff Headquarters reported damage at Kuwait International Airport after an attack by Iranian drones on Wednesday.

Defense Ministry spokesperson Brig. Gen. Saud Abdulaziz Al-Otaibi said that "a number of hostile drones" attacked Terminal 1 at the airport.

The attack, he said in a post to the headquarters' X account, "resulted in significant material damage to the building and injuries to a number of individuals, who received the necessary medical care."

U.S. Central Command said Iran's claims to have successfully attacked a Middle Eastern U.S. airbase and the 5th Fleet headquarters in Bahrain were "false."

"All Iranian attacks on American forces failed. U.S. forces remain vigilant and ready to defend against unwarranted Iranian aggression," CENTCOM wrote in a post to X.

An additional wave of Iranian drones "attempting to attack U.S. forces in Kuwait failed to impact intended targets" on Tuesday night, U.S. Central Command said in a social media statement.

"U.S. Central Command air defenses successfully downed multiple drones and ensured no American personnel or assets were harmed," the statement said.
