Kuwait activated air-raid sirens early Saturday after an Iranian drone attack was reported in the country. Iran's army had said shortly beforehand that Operation Saeqeh drones targeted ammunition stores at Camp Udairi, command buildings and ammunition stores at Ali Al Salem Air Base, and several bridges in Kuwait. The army statement also claimed drones targeted U.S. fuel tanks at Jordan's Al Azraq Air Base. The verified reports did not identify any impact or casualty in Kuwait, and neither Kuwait nor the United States had issued a damage assessment in those initial accounts.
