Kuwait – The Kuwaiti Ministry of Defense announced that its air defense systems detected six hostile ballistic missiles within the country’s airspace during the past 24 hours,

confirming that all of them fell outside the threat area without posing any danger.

Details of monitoring and defensive response

The Ministry’s official spokesperson explained in a press briefing carried by the Kuwait News Agency

as they landed in safe areas outside the missile’s range.

He also noted that air defenses engaged one hostile drone and successfully destroyed it.

Continued military readiness

The Ministry affirmed that its forces are fully prepared to deal with any potential threats, given the ongoing regional tensions,

emphasizing that its air defense systems are operating with high efficiency in detecting and intercepting hostile targets.

This comes as part of a series of monitoring and countermeasures announced by Kuwait in recent days.

The region is witnessing a significant escalation in missile and drone attacks,

prompting countries in the region to bolster their defense capabilities and raise their alert levels.

Kuwaiti officials affirm the continued coordination among various military

and security agencies to ensure the protection of airspace and vital installations,

and to maintain the country’s security and stability in the face of any emerging developments.
