Kuwait city: A worker was killed, and major material damage was caused after an Iranian attack late Sunday on a service building at a power generation and water desalination plant in Kuwait, the country's Electricity Ministry said early Monday. The ministry announced that the fatality was an Indian national, and the strike resulted in extensive damage to the facility's infrastructure.
According to Anadolu Agency, technical and emergency teams were immediately dispatched under emergency plans to manage the aftermath of the attack and ensure that operations at the plant continue normally. The ministry further stated that authorities are working in coordination with security agencies and other relevant bodies to secure the damaged site.
The attack is part of a series of regional escalations that have intensified since Israel and the US launched an offensive against Iran on February 28. This offensive has resulted in more than 1,340 casualties, including the then-Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. In retaliation, Iran has conducted drone and missile strikes targeting Israel, Jordan, Iraq, and Gulf countries hosting US military assets. These retaliatory strikes have caused casualties, damage to infrastructure, and disruptions in global markets and aviation.
