DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — The U.S. military said that Kuwait had intercepted missiles launched by Iran late Wednesday night, calling the Iranian attack on one of the U.S. top allies in the Persian Gulf an "egregious ceasefire violation."
The attack on Kuwait was the latest flare-up to shake the fragile ceasefire reached last month between the U.S. and Iran.
Kuwait had earlier announced an attack on its territory, and Iran announced it had retaliated after strikes earlier in the week on a U.S. base in an Gulf state it did not name.
