2026 Port Shuaiba drone attack
On 1 March 2026, an Iranian one-way attack drone struck a tactical operations center belonging to the United States Armed Forces in Port Shuaiba, an industrial port in Kuwait. The operations center was described as a makeshift and relatively unprotected site which logistical units were moved to from the larger Camp Arifjan in preparation for the Iran war, which began the day prior. Air defense systems failed to intercept the drone and warning sirens were not activated before it directly struck the main office trailer. The attack killed six United States Army Reserve soldiers, the first casualties suffered by the US in the war. More than 30 soldiers were additionally injured according to CBS News. An internal memo obtained by the agency reported that Iranian intelligence may have tracked the movement of US personnel at the site prior to the start of the war.
