Kuwait army says air defences intercept missile, drone attacks

 Kuwaiti air defences intercepted "hostile missile and drone attacks", the military said Monday, as air raid sirens howled across the country.

"The General Staff of the Army wishes to advise that any sounds of explosions heard are the result of air defense systems intercepting these hostile attacks," the Kuwait Army said in a post on its official X account.

KUNA, the state news agency, reported that air raid sirens rang across the Gulf nation, despite a US-Iran ceasefire in place.
