ALBAWABA - Kuwait's Ministry of Defense announced today the detection and "dealing with" of "hostile" drones.

Kuwait said Sunday the Gulf country came under drone attack at dawn.

The war on Iran started on Feb. 28 when the United States and Israel started airstrikes targeted at Iranian military bases and commanders, killing many, including the then-supreme leader Ali Khamenei.

In response, Tehran launched attacks against Tel Aviv and American assets and bases in the Middle East, including Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
