The Iranian news agency Tasnim reported Sunday morning that a missile attack was carried out against Kuwait and Erbil in northern Iraq. According to the report, the targets were facilities associated with the American military presence in the region. No details on casualties, damage, or the origin of the missiles were provided.
The Iranian state news agency Tasnim reported Sunday at 10:49 Jerusalem time that a missile attack had struck Kuwait and Erbil, the capital of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, targeting facilities linked to the American military presence. The report, based on a single source, did not specify the number of missiles, the extent of damage, or casualties, and it remains unverified by independent sources.
The report comes amid a series of missile-related incidents in the region. Earlier on Sunday, security analyst Chananel Aviv reported on Telegram that missiles had been launched from Kuwait toward targets in southern Iran (The Zioneer, 03:23 Jerusalem). That report also relied on a single source and was not independently confirmed. Over the past weeks, multiple unverified reports — including from Iranian-aligned channels and Arab media — have described Iranian missile strikes on US bases in Iraq, Kurdish opposition targets, and other sites in the region. The Zioneer has documented a pattern of such reports since early June, though the veracity and origin of each remain uncertain.
The current Tasnim report does not state who launched the missiles, but the Iranian state outlet's framing — coupled with the stated targets of US-linked facilities in Kuwait and Iraqi Kurdistan — suggests the attack may be attributed to Iran or its allies. No immediate reaction from US, Kuwaiti, or Iraqi authorities has been reported.
