KUWAIT CITY: Kuwait intercepted hostile drones on Monday, the third consecutive day of Iranian retaliatory strikes on neighbouring Gulf states in response to US and Israeli attacks on the Islamic Republic.
A series of loud blasts was heard on Monday morning in Dubai and the Qatari capital of Doha, according to Reuters witnesses. Loud bangs and sirens were heard earlier in Kuwait, according to Reuters witnesses.
No injuries were reported after Kuwaiti air defences intercepted the majority of the drones near the Rumaithiya and Salwa neighbourhoods, the state news agency cited the director-general of the civil defence as saying.
