_____________________________________________
Two Iraqi missiles have hit Kuwait's northern border with Iraq, according to the country's defence minister.
He said the two Iraqi missiles were three-tonne medium-range and "were not carrying any unconventional warheads".
Kuwait's Defence Ministry says experts in chemical suits are checking the missile blast site.
Earlier, another Kuwaiti defence official said he had heard two explosions caused by a missile landing in the Mutlaa Ridge area just north of the town of Jahra.

Gee. I wonder where those missiles were launched from and what their flight range was.

Embedded Sky News reporters are wearing gas masks, there are lots of alerts this morning, not drills, some very chaotic scenes earlier.

Kuwaiti experts in biochem gear are testing the blast sites.

Hmmmm...If three ton is accurate, they're too big to be Al-samoud, I think. Hans Blix should be leading this parade into Iraq. I'll spot him a flak vest and a helmet (only fair) but no chem suit! If he's so sure they don't have WMD, he shouldn't have any objections!

South Dakota. One will turn out to be a house that landed on a senator from New York, who was wearing a Yankees cap.

British Defence Sec just held a brief presser outside No. 10, he said there's not long to wait for the main attack to begin.

In general usage, a "medium-range" missile has a range of between 500-1500 miles, although I'm uncertain that's the definition here.

I very much doubt it, but they are the words they used. Seemingly whats going on now is an exchange of heavy art fire on both sides. Looks like there has only been 2 missiles fired at Kuwait so far.
