Kuwait: The Kuwaiti military said on Friday that two drones coming from the direction of neighbouring Iraq struck border posts on the countries’ shared frontier, causing damage but no casualties.<\/p>\n

No Iraqi group has claimed responsibility for the attack, but Baghdad’s interior minister said it would investigate the incident.
“This morning, two of Kuwait’s northern land border posts were targeted in a criminal act of aggression involving two explosive-laden drones guided by fibre-optic cables, originating from the Republic of Iraq, resulting in material damage but… no human casualties,” the military said in a statement on X.<\/p>\n

In a call with his Kuwaiti counterpart, Iraqi Interior Minister<\/a> Abdel Amir al-Shammari denounced such attacks, saying they “damage the reputation of the fraternal relations between the two countries”, Iraq’s official INA news agency reported.<\/p>\n

He said that Iraq had ordered the formation of an investigative committee “to identify those responsible and bring them to justice”.<\/p>\n

After the Middle East war began on February 28, pro-Iran armed groups began claiming daily attacks on “enemy bases” in Iraq and the wider region, but said they were suspending their actions after a ceasefire was announced.
Gulf countries, however, have summoned Iraqi representatives to protest attacks from these groups even after the ceasefire came into place.<\/p>\n

Along with the Gulf states, Iraq was dragged into the war between the United States, Israel and Iran, with strikes repeatedly targeting both US interests — especially the embassy in Baghdad — and pro-Iran groups in the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kuwait: The Kuwaiti military said on Friday that two drones coming from the direction of neighbouring Iraq struck…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":82554,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[6709,29557,29555,29552,26476,94,29551,29556,29554,29553,816],"class_list":{"0":"post-82553","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-iraq","8":"tag-kuwait-drone-attack","9":"tag-border-post-attack","10":"tag-ceasefire-in-iraq","11":"tag-explosive-drones","12":"tag-gulf-states-security","13":"tag-iraq","14":"tag-iraq-border-security","15":"tag-iraqi-interior-minister","16":"tag-kuwait-military","17":"tag-kuwaiti-military-statement","18":"tag-middle-east-conflict"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@iran\/116463481898782672","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/82553","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=82553"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/82553\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/82554"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=82553"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=82553"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=82553"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
