The Ministry of Defense of Kuwait revealed on Thursday that its air defense systems intercepted 32 hostile drones that had breached its airspace.

Military Representative Asserts Successful Counteraction

Brigadier General Saud Abdulaziz al-Atwan, spokesperson for the Ministry, confirmed the successful interception of all 32 drones, framing the incident as part of Iran's "malicious aggression" against Kuwait.

Damage From Drone Debris Reported

Although the debris caused material damage, officials stated that there were no reported injuries or fatalities.

Military Preparedness Remains High
