Event details
Kuwait's Defense Ministry said its air defenses detected and handled 24 hostile drones over the past 48 hours, with limited material damage and no casualties reported. The tally sharpens the Gulf spillover picture after Kuwait reopened air traffic but does not independently verify every intercept or impact site.
Context
The official count turns Kuwait from a temporary airspace disruption into a measurable air-defense burden. Watch for KUNA, airport, oil-sector, debris, or insurance reports that separate intercepted drones from damage that reached the ground.
