Kuwait condemns Iranian missile and drone attacks on UAE

KUWAIT CITY, May 8: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Kuwait on Friday strongly condemned what it described as “reprehensible Iranian attacks” targeting the United Arab Emirates with ballistic missiles and drones, saying the strikes resulted in multiple injuries.

In an official statement issued on May 8, the ministry said the continued attacks represent a “flagrant violation” of the UAE’s sovereignty and pose a direct threat to its security and stability. It added that the escalation undermines regional efforts aimed at reducing tensions and maintaining stability.

The ministry reaffirmed Kuwait’s full solidarity with the UAE and voiced support for all measures taken by Emirati authorities to safeguard the country’s security and stability.

Kuwait also expressed its wishes for a speedy recovery for those injured in the attacks.
