India condemns attacks on Kuwait International Airport that killed an Indian national, urges cessation of "such attacks"

In Kuwait on June 3, 2026, an Iranian missile and drone attack hit Kuwait International Airport on day 96 of the conflict. One Indian national was killed and 63 people were wounded, and fire and damage were seen at the airport. Kuwait activated its airport emergency plan, suspended flights and diverted them to alternative airports. India's Ministry of External Affairs condemned the attack and urged that “such attacks” cease, and Indian missions in the region were put on alert.

The drone attack came as the US struck Qeshm Island. Die Zeit wrote of dozens of injured in Kuwait after a new escalation in the Gulf. Kuwait also arrested one person for filming a drone interception, which caused a traffic accident on a motorway while Iranian missiles flew overhead.
