The ministry said in a post on X that the strike targeted infrastructure linked to electricity generation and water desalination, without providing further details on the timing or scale of the attack.

Authorities said the assault caused damage to a service building within the plant complex, though the extent of disruption to power and water output was not immediately clear.

No additional casualties were reported in the initial statement.

The incident comes amid escalating hostilities involving Iran and its regional adversaries, with attacks increasingly affecting critical infrastructure across the Gulf.

Kuwait, a key energy producer, has not been a primary battlefield but remains vulnerable due to its strategic facilities.

Officials did not provide further operational details or attribute responsibility beyond identifying the attack as Iranian.
