Air traffic at Kuwait International Airport was suspended and flights diverted to nearby airports after Iranian missiles and drones struck Terminal One, causing casualties and damage to several facilities.
According to a report by Gulf News, Kuwait’s Public Authority for Civil Aviation (PACA) immediately activated its emergency plan in response to the attack.
Spokesman Abdullah Al‑Rajhi said authorities were implementing established protocols to safeguard workers and passengers and secure airport facilities.
Al‑Rajhi added that security and technical contingency measures are being enforced to enable the eventual resumption of operations.
Technical teams are currently assessing the extent of the damage before repair work begins. (Newswire)
