Wave of Sympathy in Kuwait for Airport Worker Who Lost Leg in Iranian Attack

The embassy is coordinating repatriation and medical care after the attack killed one Indian national and injured several others, officials said.

  • On Wednesday, Terminal 1 of Kuwait International Airport was targeted by hostile drones, resulting in the "death of one traveller and injuries to several workers and travellers," according to Kuwaiti Interior Ministry spokesperson Brigadier General Nasser Bousleeb.
  • The Kuwait Army attributed the strike to Iranian forces, citing escalating hostilities between Iran and the U.S. that have destabilized the region.
  • India's Ambassador to Kuwait Paramita Tripathi visited the Central Mortuary to view the deceased's remains and met injured compatriots in hospitals, assuring them of "all possible assistance and close monitoring."
  • Tripathi met Brigadier Abdulrahim Al-Awadhi, General Manager of the General Department of Criminal Evidence, to express appreciation for the "prompt and sensitive support" extended by Kuwaiti authorities.
  • This incident marks the latest fatality in the regional conflict, bringing the total number of reported Indian deaths to at least 10 since February 28, with previous attacks occurring in Oman, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE.
