(Reuters) - Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain
reported Iranian drone attacks on Saturday and early Sunday, including a huge
fire that engulfed a government office block in Kuwait.
Kuwait's interior ministry said two officers were killed, while the UAE said
four migrant workers had died in Iranian attacks there so far.
The UAE said air defence teams had knocked out 16 ballistic missiles and 113
drones fired towards the Gulf state on Sunday. One missile fell in the sea
and four drones hit the country's territories.
Bahrain said on Sunday that an Iranian drone attack had caused "material
damage" to a desalination plant, though water supplies were not disrupted. It
was the first time an Arab country has said Iran targeted a desalination
facility during the conflict.
On Saturday, Iran accused the United States of striking a desalination plant
on Qeshm Island, disrupting water supplies to 30 villages and calling it "a
dangerous move with grave consequences."
In Saudi Arabia, two people were killed and 12 injured after a projectile hit
a residential area in Al-Kharj city, the Civil Defence agency said.
Riyadh has told Tehran that continued Iranian attacks on the kingdom and its
energy sector could push Riyadh to retaliate, people familiar with the matter
told Reuters.
