Iran's embassy in Kuwait denies Iranian citizen had role in alleged assassination plot

Disputed · Kuwait, Kuwait (approximate) · 2026-10-28 08:28 UTC

The Iranian Embassy in Kuwait rejects a Kuwaiti claim that an Iranian citizen was involved in a plot to assassinate figures in Kuwait, saying the person named has not been in Kuwait for ten years. Both claims come from one Telegram relay (ME Observer) of the embassy's own statement, so the Kuwaiti claim is reported only secondhand.
