The Iranian armed forces on Sunday released footage showing a wave of drone attacks on two U.S. military installations in Kuwait, as a senior Iranian military figure vowed a "devastating response" to "any barbaric acts" by the United States.
The Iranian Army have carried out two phases of operation against the American military assets, said the semi-official Tasnim news agency quoting a military statement released on Sunday.
The forces targeted the American ammunition depot at Camp Udairi as well as Patriot radar and air surveillance radar systems at Ali Al-Salem Air Base, employing explosive drones, in the earlier phase, according to the report.
In the following phase of operation, it again targeted the ammunition depot at Camp Udairi, along with equipment storage facilities and personnel shelters at Ali Al-Salem Air Base, said the report.
Ali Abdollahi, chief commander of Iran's main military command Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, issued a statement on Sunday, vowing that the Iranian armed forces will deliver a "decisive and devastating response" to "any barbaric acts" by the United States.
In addition to the U.S. bases in Kuwait, the Iranian armed forces also launched a flurry of missile and drone attacks against U.S. military bases and facilities inside Bahrain and Jordan over the past few days, in response to fresh U.S. strikes against Iran's southern provinces.
Friday's attacks killed two American service members and left another missing in Jordan, the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said in a press release on Saturday.
Following the killing of the two American troops, the U.S. forces launched their eighth consecutive night of strikes on Iran later on Saturday to "swiftly punish" the country, CENTCOM said in a post on X.

Business leaders, researchers and entrepreneurs from around the world gathered at the 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC), where discussions are focusing on turning AI innovation into cross-border partnerships and real-world applications.
The 2026 WAIC is running in Shanghai from Friday to Monday under the theme "AI Partnership for a Brighter Future."
Across the exhibition halls, conversations often extended beyond product demonstrations, with visitors exploring potential partnerships, supply chains and overseas expansion.
Among them was Paolo Brizzi, chief information officer of Italy's Competence Center for Industry and Manufacturing (CIM), who met with a Chinese AI company to discuss cooperation ranging from industrial applications to entering the European market.
"My point is not to be a customer or a provider of technologies, but to identify parts [where we can] actually collaborate and work together," he said.
The four-day conference has also created opportunities for startups to connect with investors, researchers and potential customers. One startup launched an online networking group on the opening day, attracting hundreds of participants who exchanged ideas, explored business opportunities and sought technical solutions.
Participants said AI innovation depends not only on technological breakthroughs but also on cooperation across industries and countries.
"Collaboration is important because alone you cannot do so much. It needs to be a team support ecosystem," said Florian Wohlrab, CEO of Canada-based OpenHW Foundation.
For many international visitors, the conference is also an opportunity to explore how AI can help address practical challenges. Omar Khan, a participant from Pakistan, said international cooperation is essential to ensuring AI benefits everyone.
"I think, for me, we are all the one. We're human and I think we can cooperate a lot," he said.
Some attendees were looking for solutions to challenges in their home countries. A visitor from Kenya said AI applications such as weather forecast and soil analysis could help improve agricultural productivity across many parts of Africa, where farming remains a cornerstone of the economy.
As countries race to advance AI technologies, participants at this year's WAIC said the conference has become a platform for connecting ideas, technology and demand across borders, helping turn AI innovation into practical international cooperation.
