Kuwait International Airport stayed shuttered to commercial passenger flights Wednesday as authorities battled a major fire at fuel storage tanks following the latest in a series of Iranian-linked drone attacks that have crippled the Gulf nation's key aviation hub.
No reopening date has been announced for the airport, which handles millions of travelers annually and serves as a vital transit point in the Middle East. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation and Public Authority for Civil Aviation confirmed the ongoing suspension of operations, urging passengers to contact airlines for rebooking options and updates.
