Multiple United States military jets have reportedly crashed in Kuwait. Videos of the incidents spread online on Monday, though it is currently unclear when the crashes initially occurred. All pilots involved in the crashes survived, according to multiple sources.
Kuwait’s Ministry of Defense first released a statement about the U.S. jet crashes that was posted by the X account of the Kuwait Army. The incident comes as U.S., Israeli, and Iranian military forces battle throughout the Middle East and Persian Gulf region. U.S. Central Command issued a press release about the incident on Monday morning.
“The official spokesman for the Ministry of Defense stated that a number of American warplanes crashed this morning, confirming that their crews were all saved,” read the post.
