More American patriot missiles deployed in Kuwait

Western military sources said that the US has been deploying more patriot missiles in Kuwait in order to protect its air bases, in what seems to be preparations for an American war against Iraq.

One source said that four Patriot missiles batteries arrived via the sea and air to Kuwait to be deployed around "Ali al-Salem" and "Ahmad al-Jaber" bases which are used by both the American and British planes.

Military sources said that the main residential areas in Kuwait enjoy actually good protection ensured by patriot batteries.
