The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed that it had carried out missile and drone attacks on a satellite communications center, a missile and air defense radar, the Patriot air defense complex, a U.S. military base staging area in Kuwait, and the launch platforms of “Hi Mars” missiles.

In a statement by the IRGC published by government media, the name of the U.S. military base was not announced. The IRGC urged Kuwaiti citizens not to miss the opportunity to destroy American institutions.

The Kuwaiti Armed Forces General Staff announced early on Wednesday, 24 Tir, that the country’s air defenses had countered “the criminal aggression [by the Islamic Republic of Iran].”
