01 · THE DISPATCH

The Kuwaiti Army General Staff Headquarters announced at 05:15 Jerusalem time that forces are intercepting hostile aerial targets. The statement, published on official channels, did not specify the number, origin, or type of threats, nor did it report casualties or damage. This is the latest development in a series of aerial alerts across the Gulf since the escalation between the United States and Iran. Earlier Thursday morning, sirens were activated in Kuwait and interceptions were reported over Bahrain, as The Zioneer reported. The IDF was preparing for a strike on Houthi targets in Yemen earlier this week, and heavy fighter jet activity was reported over Iraq overnight. The current situation in Kuwait appears to be an ongoing defensive operation; no all-clear has been announced.
