A fire was reported near Kuwait International Airport after a suspected drone strike hit a fuel storage facility, according to officials from the aviation authority. Emergency teams were immediately deployed to the scene after smoke was seen rising from the area near the airport’s fuel tanks.

Authorities stated that the incident occurred early in the morning, and initial reports suggested that the attack may have involved drones linked to regional tensions in the Middle East. However, officials have not yet confirmed the full details of the strike and investigations are currently ongoing.

Witnesses traveling on the highway near the airport reported seeing large clouds of black smoke coming from the direction of the fuel storage area. Security forces quickly secured the location, and airport operations were temporarily monitored to ensure passenger safety.

According to preliminary information, the fire started after an impact was reported at one of the fuel tanks used for aviation supply. Firefighters worked to control the flames while airport authorities coordinated with national security agencies to assess the situation.

The incident comes at a time of increased tensions in the region, with several countries on alert following recent drone and missile attacks targeting energy facilities. Officials have not confirmed any casualties, but safety procedures were activated as a precaution.

Kuwait’s aviation authority said that airport operations were not completely shut down, but some flights could face delays while authorities continue to monitor the situation. A full report is expected after the investigation is completed.
