The Ministry of Interior announced the seizure of around 100kg of meth and 10kg of heroin, worth an estimated KD 1.15 million, in a joint Kuwait-UAE security operation.
The operation, overseen by First Deputy Prime Minister Sheikh Fahad Yusuf Al-Sabah, was based on intelligence about a sea container linked to an international drug network.
In coordination with Customs, the container was tracked from Shuwaikh Port, leading to the arrest of an Asian national in Amghara. The Fire Force assisted in opening and securing its contents.
Shaikh Fahad Al-Yusuf thanked UAE Deputy Prime Minister Sheikh Saif bin Zayed Al-Nahyan for the intelligence and cooperation that ensured the operation's success, stressing the importance of continued security coordination.
The minister reaffirmed the Ministry's commitment to countering the drug threat and safeguarding national security through local and international partnerships.
