Kuwait's Air Defenses Thwart Iranian Drone Attacks

0:00This is Kori, and here's what's making news across the globe right now. Kuwait's air defenses took down hostile drones on Monday, marking the third-strayed day of Iranian strikes on Gulf neighbors. These attacks come as retaliation for U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran over the weekend. Officials confirm most drones were intercepted near the Rumaithia and Salwa areas with no injuries reported. Loud bangs echoed through the city along with air raid sirens, as witnesses described the tense moments. U.S. media quoted civil defense leaders saying the defenses worked effectively to protect populated zones. The strikes stem from Iran's bow to hit back after Saturday's U.S. and Israeli operations against the Islamic Republic. Tehran has warned it will target American bases across the region in response. These drone attacks have spread to civilian and commercial spots in several Gulf cities, disrupting key aviation hubs and trade routes. The widening scope is raising alarms about the conflict's reach. As tensions simmer into a third day, Gulf states remain on high alert with no end in sight
