> Kuwait said a paramilitary Revolutionary Guard team tried to infiltrate Bubiyan Island in the northwest corner of the Persian Gulf near Iraq and Iran on May 1. Seems like this is definitely a strategic choice on Kuwait's part to sit on this and wait to mention it until two days before the Trump-Xi meeting.

Clowns😂😂 They thought infiltration mission is as easy as killing defenseless protestors on the street or hurling drones at commercial vessels. If these High ranking IRGC Members (thst they trusted so much to send on mission like this) got captured by Kuwait army of all the nations in the region, shows how much they f****** suck on ground combat.

Isn’t Kuwait’s economy collapsing into a black hole since they have no exports?

Wonder if this is a group who were trying to get into the country, or they were actually going for the port on the island.
