IRGC: US, Israel responsible for attack on Kuwait’s power, desalination plant
Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) has said that Israel carried out an earlier attack on Kuwait’s power and desalination plant, warning regional countries to stay vigilant.
On Friday, Kuwait said that an electricity generation and water desalination plant came under attack. The country’s Ministry of Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy accused Iran of attacking the facilities.
In its statement, the IRGC’s Public Relations Office condemned the attack as an “inhumane act,” carried out by the aggressors.
It said that the “unconventional and illegitimate attack” by the US-Israeli aggressors on Kuwait’s energy and civilian infrastructures is a sign of their “depravity and baseness.”
The IRGC also urged regional countries to “remain vigilant” about attempts by the United States and Israel to destabilize and destroy West Asia.
The IRGC has once again warned that the US military bases and personnel in the region, as well as the military and security sites in the Israeli-occupied territories, are the targets of its powerful retaliatory attacks.
Since Israel and the US launched their illegal war against Iran on February 28, the country’s civilian infrastructure has repeatedly been targeted in flagrant violation of international law.
In response to the aggression, Iran’s Armed Forces have carried out daily missile and drone attacks on American assets and bases in the region. Israeli-occupied territories have also been the target of Iran’s powerful drone and missile strikes.
Meanwhile, Tehran has consistently said that neighboring countries are friendly and brotherly nations, urging Arab Persian Gulf countries to expel US forces from the region.
The strike on Kuwait’s power and desalination plant, which it did not name, came hours after the country’s al-Ahmadi oil refinery was targeted.
Local media reported that the attack caused fires in a “number of operational units,” and that no employees were injured.
According to reports, this was the third time the refinery has been hit, and people across the country are on “high alert.”
Tehran has long warned of US- and Israeli false flag operations to draw regional states into the war.
