Kuwait's Defence Ministry has announced that several US military warplanes have crashed within the country's territory, according to an official statement released on Wednesday. The ministry confirmed that all crew members involved in the incident survived and are safe.
The statement did not specify the exact number of aircraft involved, their type, or the precise location of the crash. The cause of the incident is currently unknown and is under investigation. The ministry's announcement is the first official confirmation of the event.
There has been no immediate comment from the Pentagon or US Central Command, which oversees American military operations in the Middle East. Kuwait hosts a significant US military presence, including at Ali Al Salem Air Base and Camp Arifjan, which serve as key logistical and operational hubs in the region.
This is a developing story and ISN Media will provide updates as more information becomes available from Kuwaiti and US officials.
