- Story Text:Footage on Tuesday (March 3) showed the skyline and streets of Kuwait City as the U.S-Iran conflict escalates.
The U.S. and Israeli air war against Iran widened on Monday (March 2), with no end in sight as Israel attacked Lebanon in response to strikes by Hezbollah and Iran kept up its attacks on Gulf states that host U.S. military bases.
The U.S. on Tuesday ordered non-emergency government personnel and their family members to leave Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Iraq and Jordan and closed several diplomatic missions across the region as tensions with Iran escalated.
The U.S. Embassy in Kuwait said it would remain closed until further notice, and all regular and emergency consular appointments were canceled.
