The Kuwaiti Foreign Ministry condemned on Sunday what it described as an Iranian attack on a power generation and water desalination facility, calling it a direct strike on vital civilian infrastructure.

The repeated targeting of civilian facilities amounted to a dangerous escalation and violated international law, the UN Charter and UN Security Council Resolution 2817, the ministry said in a statement.
