Iran's army claims it struck the Al-Adiri camp and Ali al-Salem airbase in Kuwait with suicide drone swarms, destroying a central ammunition warehouse and hitting Patriot radar systems, according to an official report. The claim, part of the sixth phase of 'Operation Barak,' is presented as retaliation for civilian and infrastructure damage. The report is unverified by independent sources.
Iran's army has claimed it conducted a large-scale drone swarm attack on two US military installations in Kuwait early Sunday morning, as part of the sixth phase of its stated 'Operation Barak.' According to the official Iranian report, the attack targeted the Al-Adiri camp and the Ali al-Salem airbase, destroying a central ammunition warehouse at Al-Adiri and scoring direct hits on Patriot radar systems and the air radar at Ali al-Salem. The claim is presented as retaliation for harm to civilians and infrastructure, though no independent verification is available. The Zioneer has previously reported on several similar Iranian claims — including by the IRGC and the regular army — asserting strikes on US bases in Jordan, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Qatar since June 2026. These claims have generally not been independently confirmed. The current report, attributed to the Iranian army, does not specify the timing of the attack or provide evidence such as footage or official statements from US Central Command.
