ABAN24 - An Iranian drone strike on Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait overnight injured 15 American personnel, according to a report Monday.
CBS News, citing two US officials, said most of those injured have since returned to duty.
The air base, located roughly 37 kilometers (23 miles) from the Iraqi border, is a key hub for US operations in the region.
Regional tensions have escalated since the US and Israel launched a joint offensive on Iran on February 28.
Iran has retaliated with drone and missile strikes targeting Israel as well as US assets in West Asia. It has also restricted the movement of ships through the Strait of Hormuz.
