A US F-15 fighter jet has crashed in Kuwait, Quds in X reports, citing sources.

The video of the crash is also published by News18 (a division of CNN) on Instagram. The footage shows the plane gradually descending, with pilots ejecting from it.

Quds writes that two pilots successfully landed after the crash.

Sirens are sounding in Middle Eastern countries including Bahrain and Kuwait, Al Jazeera reports. The latter has at least a third alarm in recent hours. Earlier, authorities in the emirate reported intercepting "most" of the drones approaching the capital, Al Kuwait.

The channel also writes about new waves of explosions in Doha, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi, UAE. Iran has previously reported that it is striking U.S. bases in the Middle East.
