Ten expatriate workers have been found dead in separate incidents across Kuwait’s Ahmadi Governorate, according to a security source cited by Al-Jarida. Preliminary medical examinations suggest the fatalities may be linked to alcohol poisoning, though official investigations are ongoing. All victims were foreign laborers, though their nationalities remain undisclosed.
The incident highlights ongoing concerns about illicit alcohol consumption in Kuwait, where alcohol is strictly prohibited. Authorities have not yet confirmed the source of the suspected toxic substance or whether the cases are connected.
Kuwait’s security forces are expected to intensify crackdowns on illegal alcohol distribution following the deaths. The tragedy underscores the risks faced by low-income migrant workers in the Gulf, where hazardous homemade alcohol occasionally leads to mass poisoning incidents.
