    As a result of the First Gulf War, Kuwait became an independent nation again.

    Explanation:

    The Gulf War was a conflict between Iraq and UN-coalition forces led by the United States between August 2, 1990 and February 28, 1991. On the morning of 2 August 1990, Iraqi national forces invaded Kuwait and annexed the country. The UN launched Operation Desert Shield to prevent Iraqi troops from invading Kuwait's oil-rich neighbor, Saudi Arabia. The United States and its allies liberated Kuwait in 1991 during Operation Desert Storm.

    Coalition forces conducted more than 100,000 missions using more than 88 tons of ammunition. Several military and civilian targets were destroyed during the bombings. The Iraqi government had a plan to attack Israel with missiles if they were attacked, which it did. The Iraqi attacks on Israel killed two people and injured 230 more.

    On January 29, Iraqi forces attacked and occupied the Saudi Arabian city of Khafji. The Battle of Khafj lasted for two days until Saudi Arabia's and coalition forces drove Iraqi troops out of the city. Both sides suffered heavy losses in terms of both staff and equipment.
