Our Family in the Gulf War
17 Jan 1991 – 28 Feb 1991
LOCATION: Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Israel
The Persian Gulf War, codenamed Operation Desert Storm (17 January 1991 – 28 February 1991) and commonly referred to as simply the Gulf War, was a war waged by a UN-authorized coalition force from 34 nations led by the United States, against Iraq in response to Iraq's invasion and annexation of Kuwait. The invasion of Kuwait by Iraqi troops that began 02 Aug 1990 was met with international condemnation, and brought immediate economic sanctions against Iraq by members of the UN Security Council. U.S. President George H. W. Bush deployed American forces into Saudi Arabia, and urged other countries to send their own forces to the scene. An array of nations joined the coalition. The great majority of the military forces in the coalition were from the United States, with Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom and Egypt as leading contributors, in that order. Around US$36 billion of the US$60 billion cost was paid by Saudi Arabia.
