On June 9, Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei accused the US military of conducting a false-flag operation by using a copied Iranian 'Lucas' drone to attack Kuwait International Airport. This attack is seen as a tactic to encourage Kuwaiti authorities to purchase US-made anti-drone air defense systems, particularly after reports surfaced that the US Department of State has approved potential sales of these systems to Kuwait. The incident occurred on June 3, when the passenger terminal T1 at the airport was struck, leading to significant damage, one confirmed death, and injuries to at least 63 individuals, including both passengers and airport staff. The Kuwaiti foreign ministry has attributed the drone and missile attacks to Iran, escalating tensions in the region and raising concerns about security measures against such threats.
