IRGC Denies Kuwait Airport Strike, Blames Patriot System Error

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has firmly denied any involvement in the destruction of the passenger terminal at Kuwait International Airport, stating that the damage was caused by an “error in the American Patriot systems” rather than an Iranian strike.

An IRGC spokesperson said, “The IRGC Aerospace Force has made no shots toward this target,” according to the semi-official Tasnim news agency.
