Kuwait’s health ministry said 63 people were injured following strikes that hit the country on Wednesday damaging its international airport, in an attack that saw one of the highest injury counts among the gulf states hit by Iran since fighting began.
A ministry spokesperson said seven of the injured required major emergency surgery.
Separately, Kuwait’s Foreign Ministry said one person was killed in the attack.
The strikes caused damage to Terminal 1 of the airport, the state-run Kuwait News Agency (KUNA) reported, citing the defense ministry.
