Iran's Revolutionary Guards claimed its 18th wave of Operation Nasr 2 struck U.S. military sites in Kuwait early Saturday. The IRGC said ground forces hit a troop concentration at the U.S. Army support center in Arifjan and killed an unspecified number of personnel, while a drone destroyed a radar at Ali Al Salem Air Base. It also claimed a weapons maintenance workshop and a drone hangar were destroyed. The statement provided no evidence, named casualty count or precise attack time, and neither the United States nor Kuwait had confirmed the claimed impacts in the initial verified reports.
