Kuwait: Kuwait's Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed condemnation and denunciation, in the strongest terms, of the brutal and ongoing Iranian attacks using ballistic missiles and drones, the latest of which occurred at dawn on Wednesday, June 3, 2026, targeting once again civilian and vital facilities, including Kuwait International Airport. 

It added that the incident resulted in the death of one individual, injuries to others, and damage to vital facilities, including diplomatic missions.  

The Ministry affirmed the State of Kuwait's categorical rejection of Iran's overt aggressive attacks, which lead to increased escalation, heightened tension, and undermine the security and stability of the region.  

The Ministry stressed that the security of the State of Kuwait, its sovereignty, and the safety of its citizens and residents on its territory are a red line that cannot be crossed, affirming that the repetition of these aggressions represents an organized aggressive approach, which the State of Kuwait will neither accept nor tolerate.  

The Ministry further affirmed that Kuwait reserves its full and inherent right to take appropriate measures in response to these repeated Iranian aggressions, in accordance with international law
