Three US fighter jets have been accidentally shot down by Kuwait’s own air defences in an apparent friendly fire incident.
All six crew members ejected safely and are in stable condition, according to US Central Command.
The F-15E aircraft were flying combat missions linked to the US-Israeli strikes on Iran when they were mistakenly targeted.
Kuwait has launched an investigation as fighting intensifies across the region.
