Kuwait suspended commercial flights on Wednesday after Iranian drones heavily damaged the country's airport and killed one person - the latest salvo in a series of back-and-forth attacks by Tehran and Washington that have tested a fragile ceasefire.

The strikes came as semiofficial Iranian news agencies said the country had stopped communicating with mediators about extending a ceasefire in the war with the US and Israel.

A regional official said Tehran wanted the truce in Lebanon enforced before returning to talks. US President Donald Trump disputed that claim and said negotiations were continuing.
