Kuwait's defense ministry said it recorded drone attacks on the Abdali border crossing, a key entry point on the country's northern frontier. The ministry did not specify who carried out the strikes or whether there were casualties.
The report
In a brief statement, the ministry confirmed the attacks but offered no further details. Officials haven't said if the drones were intercepted or if the crossing remains operational. The Abdali post sits near the border with Iraq and has been a site of past security incidents.
The announcement comes as a reminder of the persistent drone threat in the region, though the ministry didn't link the incident to any specific group or state. Investigators are likely reviewing debris and flight data to determine the origin of the unmanned aircraft.
No group has claimed responsibility so far. The ministry's statement didn't mention any retaliation or heightened alert measures. It's unclear whether the attack disrupted traffic or trade at the crossing, which is used by both civilian travelers and commercial trucks.
Kuwait has faced sporadic drone incursions before, but this is the first reported attack on a border facility in months. The defense ministry said it will provide updates as more information becomes available.
