Kuwait has approved paying off the debts of 767 citizens as part of the nation's third campaign to help those in financial difficulties.
Debts ranging from KD5,000 to KD10,000 (BD6,160 to BD12,325) were paid off.
To benefit from the programme, citizens must have a Kuwaiti passport and not have benefited from the two previous campaigns.
The two prior campaigns helped 1,178 people settle their debts.
