Kuwait City, June 3 -- Kuwait temporarily suspended commercial flights on Wednesday following an Iranian drone attack on the country's main international airport, which came just hours after the US and Iran exchanged missile strikes.

Kuwaiti Defence Ministry spokesman Brigadier General Saud Abdulaziz Al-Otaibi said "a number of hostile drones" targeted the passenger terminal at Kuwait International Airport.

According to the ministry, the strike caused significant damage to parts of the building and injured several people, though authorities did not immediately disclose the number or condition of those wounded.

The airport had only recently resumed normal operations on June 1 due to disruptions caused by the Iran war.
