Question

Which of the following Arab countries was attacked by its northern neighbor, Iraq, in 1990?

Answer 1

The correct answer is that the Arab country that was attacked by its northern neighbor, Iraq, in 1990, was Kuwait.

In 1990 the small country of Kuwait was invaded militarily and annexed by the Iraq of Saddam Hussein, an occupation that lasted for seven months and that provoked the intervention of the United States Army and the outbreak of the Gulf War. The Iraqi army withdrew from the country before the US advance but on its way it burned almost eight hundred Kuwaiti oil wells, an economic and environmental catastrophe for the nation. The country's infrastructure was devastated during the conflict and had to be rebuilt.

Answer 2

The Arab country that was attacked by its Northern neighbor, Iraq, in 1990 was Kuwait. The rest of the choices were not attacked by Iraq. The correct answer is C.
