Report: 15 U.S. soldiers injured in Iranian drone strike on Kuwait’s Ali Al Salem Air Base

Fifteen American soldiers were injured overnight in an Iranian drone strike on Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait, CBS News reported on Monday, citing two U.S. officials. One of the officials said most of the injured service members had already returned to duty, indicating light injuries.
A previous drone strike in Kuwait in early March resulted in the deaths of six U.S. soldiers. Kuwait is one of the regional countries that Iran has attacked in retaliation for the joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on the Islamic Republic.
Separately, Kuwaiti authorities recently said they uncovered a Hezbollah plot to assassinate "leaders of the state." The Ministry of Interior said six people had confessed to espionage and terrorist activities, including training in "assassination skills." Five of those suspects were Kuwaiti citizens.
The ministry said another 14 suspects, including Kuwaitis, Lebanese and Iranians, had been identified outside the country. That announcement came a week after Kuwait announced a second set of arrests within a week, involving a group of 10 Kuwaiti nationals allegedly linked to the Hezbollah terrorist organization.
Hezbollah has denied it has any presence in Kuwait, calling the government’s accusations "removed from reality and devoid of truth."
