25 U.S. Soldiers Hurt as Bus Overturns in Kuwait

KUWAIT (Reuters) - Twenty five U.S. soldiers were injured when their bus overturned near an air force based used by Kuwaiti and American-led forces in northern Kuwait, a spokesman for the U.S. military said Tuesday.

The incident took place Sunday near Ali al-Salem Air Base, 45 miles northwest of the capital Kuwait City, Captain Randall Baucom said.

"Four of the soldiers were taken to a Kuwaiti armed forces hospital and are in a stable condition, while 21 were treated at a local camp," Baucom added.

He said Kuwaiti police were questioning the bus driver, a Kenyan national. He did not elaborate.
