Kuwaiti authorities detained four individuals earlier this month for attempting to infiltrate the country by sea. According to a statement from Kuwait’s Interior Ministry, published by the state news agency KUNA, the detainees admitted to being members of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). The group included two navy colonels, a captain, and a lieutenant commander, who allegedly tried to enter Bubiyan Island on May 1 using a fishing boat hired for hostile activities against Kuwait.
The ministry said a firefight occurred between Kuwaiti forces and the infiltrators, injuring one Kuwaiti soldier, while two IRGC members managed to escape. Kuwait’s Foreign Ministry summoned Iran’s ambassador, Mohammad Tutunji, to deliver a protest note, calling the incident a hostile act and a clear attack on national sovereignty. Iran’s Foreign Ministry rejected the allegations as baseless, claiming the officers had mistakenly entered Kuwaiti waters due to navigation errors.
Kuwait has maintained a strict stance toward individuals and groups linked to Iran since the start of the ongoing regional conflict, according to the report.
