Iran's Three-Day Kuwait Campaign: Military, Logistics, Water
Iran systematically targets Kuwait across three conflict days — airport radar, army camp, desalination plant
Over three consecutive conflict days, Iran conducted a deliberate escalation campaign against Kuwait — a US-allied Gulf state hosting significant American military logistics. On Day 29 (March 28), drone strikes heavily damaged Kuwait International Airport's radar systems. On Day 30 (March 29), 14 missiles and 12 drones entered Kuwaiti airspace; a military logistics warehouse was struck, injuring 10 service members. Kuwait's Foreign Ministry called it a 'systematic pattern of destabilization.' On Day 31 (March 30), Iran struck a power and water desalination plant — killing an Indian worker and damaging a service building. The targeting sequence — air defence, military logistics, civilian water infrastructure — follows a deliberate coercion logic: demonstrating Iran's ability to degrade both Kuwait's military readiness and its civilian water supply in one of the world's most water-scarce regions.
