‘Habibi what is this?’ - Iran over US missiles fired from Kuwait

Kuwait’s Emir said on 9 March that no Kuwaiti territory had been used for military action against Iran, but France 24 has now verified video evidence showing the opposite. The outlet geolocated footage showing at least 13 US-made GMLRS missiles fired from HIMARS launchers inside Kuwait on 24 and 31 March, roughly 55 km from Camp Buehring. Iran’s Embassy in Thailand quote-tweeted the report with ‘Habibi what is this?’, while both CENTCOM and Kuwait declined to comment.
