Kuwait city: The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has announced the execution of a missile-drone strike targeting the US Ali al-Salem base in Kuwait. This operation was reportedly carried out as a direct response to recent US military actions against Iranian territory.

According to Islamic Republic News Agency, the IRGC issued a statement early on Wednesday detailing the attack, which resulted in significant damage to the US command post, drone facilities, and the destruction of several drones. The IRGC described the strike as a form of retaliation for a prior US airstrike on a residential area in Sirik, Hormozgan Province, Iran, which resulted in the deaths of four civilians, including a child, and left dozens injured.
