The Interior Ministry on Wednesday said the suspect was arrested following “meticulous” security monitoring and surveillance operations, The National reported. In 2024, Kuwaiti security forces arrested two citizens and three Tunisians in connection with an alleged ISIS plot against Shiites. In March this year, Kuwait arrested dozens of people accused of links to the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah. In a separate case, authorities detained 14 Kuwaitis and two Lebanese citizens affiliated with the Iran-backed group over a “sabotage plot” in the Gulf nation.
