The Liberation of Kuwait was a U.S.-led military operation to retake Kuwait from Iraq after the massive air campaign, between 24–28 February 1991. U.S. troops and the Coalition entered to find the Iraqis surrendering en masse; however, pockets of resistance existed, particularly at Kuwait International Airport where Iraqi troops, seemingly unaware that a retreat order had been issued to them, continued to fight, resulting in a fierce battle over the airport itself. The majority of the fighting took place in Iraq, rather than Kuwait. The operation is part of what is commonly known as the Gulf War.

  • عملية تحرير الكويت كانت عملية عسكرية قادتها الولايات المتحدة لاستعادة الكويت من العراق بعد الحملة الجوية الضخمة بين 24 و28 فبراير 1991. عثرت القوات الأمريكية والتحالف على العراقيين مستسلمين بشكل جماعي. ومع ذلك فإن أفراد المقاومة كانوا موجودين خاصة في مطار الكويت الدولي حيث القوات العراقية على ما يبدو غير مدركين أنه قد صدر أمر بالانسحاب وواصلوا القتال مما أدى إلى معركة شرسة على المطار نفسه. وقع معظم القتال في العراق بدلا من الكويت. العملية هي جزء من ما هو المعروف باسم حرب الخليج الثانية.

Las tropas estadounidenses y de la Coalición se encontraron con la rendición iraquí en masa; sin embargo, existían focos de resistencia, especialmente en el , donde las tropas iraquíes, aparentemente inconsciente de la orden de retiro, continuaron luchando, resultando en una feroz batalla en el mismo aeropuerto. La mayoría de los enfrentamientos tuvieron lugar en Irak, en vez de Kuwait.​ (es)
