An unverified video circulating on social media claims to show a military facility engulfed in flames following Iran's latest missile attack on Kuwait.

Several social media posts have identified the location as the Saad Al-Abdullah Military Academy, a major Kuwaiti military training facility. However, Roya News English has not independently verified the video's authenticity or the location where it was recorded.

Kuwait's Ministry of Defense confirmed earlier that Iranian ballistic missiles and drones targeted multiple military, security, and civilian sites across the country.

In a statement, the ministry said the attacks struck military and security facilities, as well as oil, electricity, and water infrastructure, causing fires and significant damage to several installations. It added that emergency crews were responding to the incidents and that several firefighters and oil sector workers were injured while carrying out response operations.

The ministry also said debris from intercepted missiles fell in several residential areas, causing material damage but no civilian casualties.

While the official statement confirmed attacks on military facilities and the outbreak of fires, it did not identify the specific locations that were hit or confirm whether the Saad Al-Abdullah Academy was among them.

Roya News English is unable to independently verify the claims made in the circulating footage, and no official confirmation has been issued regarding the location shown in the video.
