Kuwait Thwarts Terrorist Plot to Attack American Forces
Kuwaiti authorities arrested a citizen for plotting to carry out a terrorist attack against American forces deployed in the country.
The General Prosecution said on Wednesday that it ordered the arrest of the suspect on charges of “joining a banned organization and plotting terrorist attacks in the country.”
In a post on the X platform, it said the suspect had posted on social media recordings belonging to the banned group.
Other suspects were also involved in the plot.
The main suspect had learned how to manufacture explosives and had incited others to learn how to do so with the purpose of bombing US army barracks, continued the prosecution.
It has interrogated the accused and he confessed to the charges against him. It has also ordered the arrest of other suspects related to the case.
On January 25, Kuwaiti authorities announced that they had thwarted a terrorist plot to attack Shiite places of worship.
Three people were arrested in connection to the case. They were all members of the terrorist ISIS group and were Arab nationals working in Kuwait.
