Kuwait has denied a Wall Street Journal report that it took part in military operations against Iran earlier this month. The Kuwaiti ambassador to the United States, speaking on Sunday, described the report as 'completely false'. The denial follows a similar statement from the Kuwaiti embassy in Washington on Saturday evening, as The Zioneer reported. The Wall Street Journal report, published earlier this week, alleged that Kuwait was among several Gulf states that participated in operations against Iran, a claim that has been widely denied by the involved countries. The ambassador's statement did not provide additional details or specify which operations were referenced. The denial comes amid a series of regional denials of involvement in strikes against Iran, as part of an ongoing information war between Iran and the US-led coalition.
