Kuwait has declared two Iranian diplomats persona non grata and ordered them to leave the country within 24 hours.

The decision comes amid rising tensions after a recent missile and drone attack on Kuwait International Airport, which killed one and injured several.

Iran had previously accused Kuwait and Bahrain of allowing the US to use their territory for strikes against Iran.
