ALBAWABA - A clip widely circulated of an Iranian drone making a direct strike on a warehouse which was already on fire, meaning it was hit minutes ago.

CNN confirmed the location of the viral clip, saying the footage appears to show an Iranian drone hitting a warehouse in an industrial area near Kuwait's Mina Abdullah port.

The video showed a Shahed drone heading toward the burning warehouse before crashing into it and causing a large explosion, CNN reported Wednesday. The clip also showed policemen and emergency teams responding to the attack and standing outside the facility.

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced Wednesday that it had targeted a U.S. military logistics and support center located in Bandar Abdullah, adding that the building was "set ablaze and destroyed." However, it remains unclear whether there was any U.S. connection to the building shown burning in the video.
