The U.S. military claims to have successfully intercepted a ballistic missile launched by Iran toward a U.S. military base in Kuwait.
The U.S. Central Command announced that on Sunday night, Iran launched two ballistic missiles at U.S. forces in Kuwait, which were intercepted by U.S. missile defense systems, causing no casualties or damage to facilities. This is the latest attack on U.S. military installations in the Middle East amid escalating U.S.-Iran tensions. The U.S. has strengthened defenses in the Gulf region, deploying additional F-35 fighters, missile defense systems, and naval vessels. Iran has not publicly responded to this incident.
