The Iranian army said it struck Camp Arifjan in Kuwait with drones overnight, destroying the storage area of US HIMARS systems. The claim is unverified by independent sources, and there has been no official response from the US or Kuwait.
The Iranian army this morning claimed a new drone strike on US forces in Kuwait, targeting Camp Arifjan and the storage area for HIMARS rocket systems. The claim, attributed to the army's public affairs division, states the attack occurred overnight. No independent confirmation has been reported, and neither the US military nor Kuwaiti authorities have commented.
The Zioneer has reported multiple similar claims by Iran in recent days, including earlier today (Tuesday, 08:54 Jerusalem) when the Iranian army claimed a wave of drones targeted three US bases in Kuwait, and at 04:56 Jerusalem when the IRGC claimed strikes on US air defense systems in Bahrain. These claims remain unverified, and it is unclear whether any actual attacks took place. This latest assertion appears to be part of a broader Iranian messaging campaign claiming retaliation for alleged US strikes on Iranian infrastructure.
