Several American warplanes crashed in Kuwait on Monday morning during ongoing Iranian strikes in the Gulf, the country’s defence ministry confirmed. Fortunately, all crew members survived the incidents.

The Kuwaiti defence ministry said the cause of the crashes is under investigation. Authorities immediately launched search and rescue operations to evacuate the crews.

The crews were transported to hospitals for medical evaluation and treatment. Officials reported that their conditions are stable and no fatalities occurred.

The crashes come as Iran continues its third day of military actions across the Gulf, heightening regional tensions. The incidents underscore the growing risks faced by foreign forces operating in the volatile area.

Kuwaiti authorities continue to monitor the situation closely, coordinating with U.S. forces to ensure the safety of personnel and investigate the circumstances of the crashes.
