Kuwait City: Kuwait’s Ministry of Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy has confirmed that debris from the country’s air defence operations damaged some electricity lines during the early morning response to the reported aerial attack.

Emergency response teams were immediately deployed to the affected locations in coordination with the relevant security authorities to inspect the damage and begin repair work.
Officials said maintenance crews are carrying out repairs while ensuring the safety and stability of the national power grid.
