Iran targets US site in Kuwait, denies attack on Azerbaijan

Iran's military said on Thursday that it had launched a drone attack against a U.S. military site in Kuwait.

"Drone units of the armed force's navy targeted a site of the U.S. forces Camp Udairi in Kuwait using combat drones," the army said in a statement broadcast by state TV.

Camp Buehring, formerly known as Udairi, is a major U.S. military facility in northwestern Kuwait.

Iran's armed forces had earlier denied having launched a drone attack on Azerbaijan after Baku said at least two Iranian drones hit the country, wounding two people.

"The Islamic republic of Iran... denies its armed forces launched a drone toward the Republic of Azerbaijan," the general staff of the armed forces said in a statement, according to state TV, which also blamed Israel.

"Such actions by the Zionist regime, aimed at disrupting relations between Muslim countries in various ways, are not unprecedented."
