Kuwait says it shot down 7 drones

Kuwait’s National Guard announced on Wednesday that its task force shot down seven drones at dawn within its areas of responsibility, Arab Times reported citing official spokesperson Brigadier General Dr. Jad’an Fadel.

The U.S. and Israel launched what they described as a pre-emptive strike against Iran on February 28, claiming that Tehran was developing a nuclear weapon and posed a threat—an allegation Iran has denied. In response, Iran launched counterattacks, firing missiles and drones at Israel, as well as at U.S. assets and other targets across the Middle East.
