Kuwaiti state media reported that two <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biggest-tesla-ev-charging-station-in-america-powered-by-diesel-plant-energy-expert\/\" title=\"Largest Tesla EV Charging Station in US Fueled by Diesel Plant: Energy Pro\">power-generation units<\/a> where knocked out, the Ministries Complex housing major <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/microsoft-president-solarwinds-hack-biggest-ever\/\" title=\"Microsoft President: SolarWinds hack biggest ever\">government offices<\/a> sustained significant damage, and the Shuwaikh oil complex caught fire. No human casualties were reported. The strikes appear to be part of Iran\u2019s ongoing retaliatory campaign against Gulf states, coming after previous attacks on desalination plants and fuel facilities in Kuwait.<\/p>\n<p>Key context:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Kuwait described material damage at government offices and energy sites, with a fire at the Shuwaikh oil complex.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Earlier in the week, damage was reported to desalination plants and fuel tanks at Kuwait\u2019s main airport, with no reported fatalities.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The article notes heightened U.S. pressure on Iran, including President Trump\u2019s warning of a 48-hour window to reach a peace deal or reopen the Strait of Hormuz, or face strikes on Iranian power plants. Iran warned it could retaliate, stating it would \u201copen the gates of Hell\u201d if attacked.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Separately, Iran warned of a \u201cserious\u201d radiation risk after a projectile hit near a nuclear power plant.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Iran strikes Kuwait&rsquo;s water and power plants, government offices<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2551495\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Iran launched a wide-ranging drone attack on <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/kuwait\" type=\"link\" id=\"washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/kuwait\">Kuwait<\/a>&lsquo;s energy infrastructure on Saturday, hitting vital water and power plants, along with its <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/oil\" type=\"link\" id=\"washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/oil\">oil<\/a> sector complex.<\/p>\n<p>Kuwaiti state media <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/kuna_ar\/status\/2040603059823251769\">reported<\/a> that two power generation units were knocked out after Iran targeted two power and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/iran-backed-houthis-attack-saudi-oil-facilities-slowing-refinery-output-amid-global-crisis\/\" title=\"Iran...Backed Houthis Attack Saudi ...
