US warplanes crashed without causing casualties, as Iran pressed on with a third day of attacks in the Gulf following US-Israeli military operations in Iran.

The defense ministry said "several" US warplanes crashed but all crew survived and were in stable condition. It added that authorities were investigating the incident.

"Authorities immediately initiated search and rescue operations, evacuating the crews and transporting them to a hospital for medical evaluation and treatment," the ministry said, adding that their condition was stable.

Also on Monday, shrapnel fell at Mina Al Ahmadi refinery, one of Kuwait's biggest, injuring two workers, but did not disrupt production, the Kuwait National Petroleum Company said.

Sirens sounded over Kuwait City to warn of incoming strikes. An unspecified number of drones was intercepted at dawn, the interior ministry said.
