The Gulf War was an armed conflict between Iraq and a 42-country coalition led by the United States, triggered by Iraq's invasion of Kuwait on August 2, 1990, over disputes regarding oil and debt. The coalition's efforts were divided into two phases: Operation Desert Shield, a military buildup from August 1990 to January 1991, and Operation Desert Storm, a 5-week aerial bombing campaign and a 100-hour ground assault that liberated Kuwait on February 28, 1991. The war was marked by a decisive coalition victory, the introduction of live news broadcasts from the front lines, and some of the largest tank battles in American military history.learn more on wikipedia
