IRGC Launches Second Night of Retaliation — Missiles/Drones at Ahmad Al-Jaber AB, Residential Fire in Kuwait City
Early Sept 3 (Day 189), Iran's Artesh launched a second consecutive night of missile-and-drone retaliation, claiming strikes on satellite-communications systems, equipment warehouses, and fighter-aircraft hangars at Ahmad Al-Jaber Air Base in Kuwait. Kuwait's General Staff said air defenses were 'responding to hostile missile and drone threats'; Kuwait's fire brigade said a drone strike sparked a fire at a residential complex in Kuwait City, causing material damage but no casualties. Kuwait's foreign ministry called the attacks 'a grave breach of the rules of international law.' JINSA counted at least 59 missiles/drones fired at Jordan, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Iraq over Sept 1-2 alone — the largest single barrage since the April 8 ceasefire — with this Sept 3 wave following as a second round.
