Breaking News: NASA satellite data confirms a fire at Kuwait's Doha West Power and Water Desalination Station.
NASA's thermal detection system recorded a rise in temperature of coastal storage tanks.
The Kuwaiti Ministry of Electricity subsequently confirmed the attack.
Doha West is an integrated power and desalination plant, the largest facility in Kuwait combining electricity generation and seawater desalination.
It can produce up to 2,400 megawatts of electricity and 110 million gallons of fresh water daily, accounting for approximately 38.5% of Kuwait’s total desalinated water supply.
About 90% of the drinking water for Kuwait’s population of 4.3 million comes from desalination.
The fire broke out amid Iran’s continuous missile and drone attacks, with reports indicating that the blaze was caused by debris from intercepted missiles striking fuel tanks.
Nuclear facilities, steel mills, aluminum plants, universities, desalination plants, power stations — the list of targeted assets seems endless. This is the reality: war is gradually evolving into a humanitarian crisis.
In modern warfare, essential public infrastructure has clearly become a "high-value military target."
Once desalination and power systems become targets, everyday life itself turns into a battlefield.
The底线 has disappeared.
Journalist: Do you wish to see Gulf nations affected by Iranian attacks begin to retaliate?
Trump: "They are fighting back. Saudi Arabia is fighting back fiercely. Qatar is fighting back. The UAE is fighting back. Kuwait is fighting back. Bahrain is fighting back. They're all fighting back (They're all fighting back)!"
Trump believes these regional countries have already begun taking action instead of waiting passively for external intervention.
