Kuwait''s Civil Aviation Authority announced on Wednesday that drones targeted a fuel tank at Kuwait International Airport, leading to a fire at the site. Spokesperson Abdullah al-Rajhi told the Kuwait News Agency (KUNA) that, according to preliminary reports, the damage was limited to property and there were no human casualties, as quoted by Al Jazeera.

Al-Rajhi stated that authorities immediately began implementing emergency procedures, and fire brigades and relevant agencies are currently dealing with the blaze.

Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump said that the US has won the war, adding that Iran''s navy and air force have been completely decimated.

Speaking at the Swearing-In Ceremony for the Secretary of Homeland Security, Trump said, "We''re in negotiations right now. I can tell you, they''d like to make a deal and who wouldn''t if you were there? Look, their navy''s gone, their air force is gone, their communications are gone. pretty much everything they have is gone."

Israeli military spokesman Brigadier General Effie Defrin said in a televised briefing that Israel''s military will operate "according to an unchanged plan" in Iran and Lebanon regardless of talks aimed at ending the war, as per Al Jazeera.

Also, the Canadian government said it strongly condemns Israel''s plans to occupy territory in southern Lebanon, adding that Lebanon''s sovereignty and territorial integrity must not be violated. However, it called for the disarmament of Hezbollah, as reported by Al Jazeera. (ANI)
