Kuwait to safeguard mosques for Shia mourning in Muharram

The Ministry of Interior (MoI) has set up a plan to safeguard mosques with the start of the month of Muharram, MoI's Undersecretary Lieutenant General Suleiman Al-Fahad said on Saturday.


The plan aims to protect lives and valuables as well as to ensure the safety of all worshippers, "which we refuse to compromise in any way," a statement by the ministry quoted Al-Fahad as saying. 

"Diligent efforts on the part of security forces is the key to the success of this plan," the MoI Undersecretary noted. 

Moreover, he underscored the need of meticulousness and cooperation between government bodies to ensure that the plan goes off without a hitch.
