The fox was chosen as a msacot because it is one of the wild animals that lived in the desert of Kuwait and Arabia, and was famous for its ability to live in harsh desert conditions. The launch ceremony will take place at the 360 Marina on May 22, she said, elaborating that the event includes 16 different sports, mainly volleyball, basketball, futsal, swimming, athletics, karate and judo.
