Several US warplanes crashed, crew survived: Kuwait defence ministry

Several American warplanes crashed in Kuwait on Monday morning, but their crew survived, Kuwait's defence ministry said, as Iran pressed on with a third day of strikes in the Gulf.

"Several U.S. warplanes crashed this morning. Confirming that all crew members survived," a defence ministry spokesman said in a statement, adding that the cause was under investigation.

"Authorities immediately initiated search and rescue operations, evacuating the crews and transporting them to a hospital for medical evaluation and treatment. He noted that their condition is stable," the statement added.
