Story summary

On March 1, an Iranian drone strike on Port Shuaiba in Kuwait killed six US soldiers, marking the deadliest attack of the ongoing conflict between the US and Iran. The Pentagon has been criticized for releasing limited information about the incident. U.S. troops injured in this strike have accused military commanders of underestimating the threat posed by Iran, as well as criticizing the medical care provided post-attack. Meanwhile, CBS News released exclusive footage showing an Iranian drone over Camp Buehring, a US base in Kuwait, before it struck and exploded inside a building. This attack was part of broader Iranian offensives affecting at least eight countries, causing billions in damage to US military assets.
