A new explosion has been reported in northern Kuwait, near the Iraqi border, according to security analyst Yair Goldblatt at 18:18 Jerusalem time. The cause of the blast is not yet known, and no confirmation from Kuwaiti authorities has been received. This report follows a series of developments earlier today (Sunday, July 12) that began at 07:30 Jerusalem, when the Kuwaiti army confirmed it was intercepting hostile aerial targets. Over the following minutes, unverified reports emerged of an attack on Kuwait International Airport, loud explosions heard across the country, and three missiles allegedly striking the Port of Kuwait. By 07:30, multiple Arab and Israeli media outlets were citing reports of a series of explosions across Kuwait, including at the port. The Zioneer has tracked this thread from the initial interception confirmation through the unverified port strikes. The new report of a northern explosion widens the geographic scope of the incidents. The Zioneer previously reported on June 10 that missile launches were observed from the Kuwait area (BACKGROUND). The cause of the latest explosion remains unclear, and the report is based on a single source. No details on casualties or damage have been provided.
