On Thursday, Colonel Hamad Al-Saqer, spokesperson for Kuwait’s defense ministry, emphasized that Kuwait will not allow its territory to be used for military attacks against neighboring countries. This statement was made in response to recent reports suggesting otherwise. The defense ministry has firmly denied these allegations, underscoring the country's commitment to maintaining peaceful relations with its neighbors.

The Federation of Arab Journalists (FAJ) has issued a strong statement calling for the international community to safeguard journalists in conflict zones, specifically Palestine, Lebanon, and Sudan. The FAJ condemned the recent attacks on journalists in Palestine by Israeli forces and settlers, who are increasingly targeting media personnel reporting on the Israeli occupation. The federation urged Arab media institutions to shed light on the challenges faced by Palestinian journalists and the broader plight of the Palestinian people.

FAJ expressed solidarity with Palestinian journalists who continue their work amidst significant threats. The federation also highlighted the severe conditions faced by journalists in southern Lebanon and Sudan. In Sudan, numerous media offices have been destroyed, and journalists have been subjected to theft, kidnapping, and unemployment. FAJ reported that approximately 1,000 Sudanese journalists are currently out of work, reflecting the harsh environment for media professionals in the region.
