ALBAWABA - The Iranian Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) claimed to have shot down an MQ-9 drone in the skies over the city of Ahvaz in the southwest of the country, local media reported Sunday.
The IRGC also announced on Sunday to have targeted Kuwait using missiles and drones. Additionally, Kuwaiti authorities said its air defenses intercepted an attack by Tehran.
"Kuwaiti air defenses are currently confronting hostile missile and drone attacks, following the sinful Iranian aggression," the Kuwaiti army announced in a statement.
Washington escalated its airstrikes against Iran in revenge for the killing of American service members in an Iranian army attack targeting a military base in Jordan.
Two American service members were killed, and one remains missing after Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks in Jordan on Friday, U.S. military officials announced. Another four service members were medically evacuated to hospitals in Jordan but have since been discharged. Others who had minor injuries have returned to duty.
