An Indian national was killed and 63 others were injured after drones struck a passenger terminal at Kuwait International Airport on Wednesday, causing significant damage and briefly disrupting operations. The airport had only recently reopened after a month-long closure linked to the ongoing Iran-US conflict. Kuwaiti authorities released CCTV footage showing the moment the drones hit the terminal from multiple directions. Several passengers and airport workers were among the injured, with some reported to be in serious condition. The Indian Embassy in Kuwait confirmed the death of the Indian citizen. While Kuwaiti officials blamed the attack on Iranian drones, Tehran denied responsibility for the strike. The incident has renewed concerns over regional security amid a fragile ceasefire.
