The infrastructure of the Mubarak Al-Kabeer port on Bubiyan Island in Kuwait has been targeted in a coordinated aerial attack involving drones and missiles.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that the Ministry of Public Works of Kuwait issued a statement confirming the incident. According to official reports, the port infrastructure was struck by several unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and cruise missiles. While significant material damage was recorded at the site, no casualties have been reported following the strikes.
In a related development, Kuwaiti authorities stated that the Ash-Shuwaikh port, located in the industrial district of the capital, also came under drone fire early this morning. Officials are currently assessing the extent of the financial and structural damage caused by the secondary attack. Security measures have been heightened across all maritime gateways in the country to prevent further escalations.
The Mubarak Al-Kabeer port is a major strategic project for Kuwait, designed to transform the nation into a regional trade hub. Located on the eastern coast of Bubiyan Island, the port is intended to serve as a vital link for international shipping routes in the northern Persian Gulf. Such incidents highlight the growing security challenges facing critical energy and transport infrastructure in the Middle East, where drone and missile technology are increasingly utilized in regional conflicts.
