Kuwait Liberation Army

The Kuwait Liberation Army refers to military forces, particularly those from various countries, including the United States, that intervened to liberate Kuwait from Iraqi occupation during the Gulf War in 1991. After Iraq, led by President Saddam Hussein, invaded Kuwait in August 1990, an international coalition was formed to restore Kuwait's sovereignty. The liberation effort culminated in a military offensive that began in January 1991, leading to Kuwait's liberation within weeks. This operation highlighted global cooperation against aggression and set the stage for later discussions on international security and the role of military alliances.
