Kuwait says power, water plant hit by Iranian attack

Kuwait said Friday that a power and water plant had been damaged by an Iranian attack, as the war in the Middle East escalated.

"One of the power and water distillation plants was the target of an attack as part of the Iranian aggression... resulting in a fire, damage, and the impairment of several production units," the electricity ministry said in a statement, urging users "to ration their electricity consumption during this exceptional period".
