Fire and smoke were seen rising from the U.S. Embassy compound in Kuwait following an Iranian attack on the country on Monday.


Video obtained by The Associated Press showed thick smoke and alarms ringing inside the embassy.

The U.S. government earlier warned its citizens in Kuwait to take cover and stay indoors. It also advised people not to visit the embassy, without giving further details, reports UNB.
