Kuwaiti ministry decries attac terrorists responsible are dea KUWAIT (AP) — A U.S. Marine who survived what Kuwait called a “terrorist act” was recovering Wednesday as investigators tried to determine how two attackers infiltrated military exercises off the emirate’s coast. Another unidentified Marine and the two assailants were killed in the gunfight that erupted Tuesday during urban assault training for U.S. Marines on Failaka, about 10 miles east of Kuwait City in the Gulf. The injured Marine “was recovering from non life threatening injuries,” Lt. Garrett Kasper, spokesman for the U.S. Navy Fifth Fleet based in Bahrain, said Wednesday. Kasper would not provide the Marine’s name or details about his wounds. Earlier, the Fifth Fleet had said the Marine was hit in the arm. The Pentagon said Tuesday that the two assailants pulled up in a pickup truck to a group of Marines and opened fire with small anus. They then drove to another site and attacked again before being killed by Marines, the Pentagon said. Marines later found three AK-47s and ammuni tion inside the truck, according to a statement released in Washington by the Fifth Fleet. In a brief statement, the Kuwaiti Interior Ministry condemned the attack and identified the assailants as Anas al-Kandari, bom in 1981, and Jassem al-Hajiri, bom in 1976. It said both were Kuwaiti civilians. U.S. intelligence has not detenuined if the attackers had any terrorist links, said an intelligence official, speaking on the condition of anonymity. A Kuwaiti Interior Ministry official, spealx; condition of anonymity, described the two nj; fundamentalist Muslims.
