KUWAIT CITY (CNN) -- An explosion struck a shopping mall in the center of Kuwait City early Saturday. Some early reports from Kuwaiti officials indicated the explosion may have been from a missile.

No warning sirens alerted residents. Smoke billowed from the sky afterward. There was no word on deaths or injuries.

About a dozen missiles have been launched from Iraq toward Kuwait in the past week, but most have been knocked out of the sky by Patriot missiles. Two landed in rural areas without causing any injuries.

Silkworm missile which flies in on a very low non ballistic trajectory which makes it difficult to shoot down. The other two missiles that landed in Kuwait were also Silkworms. The missile apparently came from the Basra area.

The good news is there are no serious injuries reported.

Sorry about the double post. I looked and did not see another post, but I overlooked it.

Don't worry about it...no biggie at all.
