The US embassy in Kuwait is closed "until further notice" according to a post on its X account, citing "ongoing regional tensions", APA reports.
The embassy says that "we have cancelled all regular and emergency consular appointments".
On Monday, the US State Department urged Americans in many parts of the Middle East - including Kuwait - to leave now via commercial means due to "serious safety risks".
Three US fighter planes crashed in the country on Monday in an "apparent friendly fire incident".
The closure of the Kuwaiti embassy comes after the US embassy in Riyadh was attacked by two drones overnight.
