Kuwait shuts airspace amid escalation in the region

Kuwait has shut down its airspace starting Monday and until further notice amid regional developments, Kuwaiti news agency Kuna reported.

The suspension follows a closure of airspace by Qatar and Bahrain as Iran attacked the Al Udeid U.S. military base in Doha.

The Gulf is home to several U.S. military bases.
