“The relevant authorities immediately implemented the approved emergency procedures” and firefighters had been deployed to bring the blaze under control, said agency spokesman Abdullah Al-Rajhi.
The Kuwait airport has come under attack several times since the regional war began on February 28, when Israel and the United States launched strikes on Iran.
On March 14, the civil aviation authority said an attack with “several drones” targeted the airport and “struck its radar system”. No casualties were reported.
Drones hit fuel tanks at the airport on March 8, and an earlier attack on a passenger terminal left several people mildly wounded and caused some damage.
