An Indian nurse working at Mubarak Hospital was accused of violating Kuwait's laws.

KUWAIT CITY, Oct 22: Lawyer Ali Habab Al-Duwaikh has formally submitted a complaint to the Public Prosecution concerning an Indian nurse employed at Mubarak Hospital who expressed support for Israeli actions involving Palestinian children's deaths, the bombing of Al-Baptist Hospital, and displaying the Zionist entity's flag on her social media accounts. These actions are viewed as a violation of Kuwait's legal statutes and the Emiri decree, which declared a state of war between Kuwait and Israel.

In his complaint, Al-Duwaikh emphasized the strong stance of the Kuwaiti government and its people in support of Palestine, particularly in the wake of the tragic bombing of Al-Baptist Hospital. He pointed out the Minister of Health's call for nurses and doctors to protest against the Zionist entity. Al-Duwaikh stated, "Despite this, a nurse at Mubarak Al-Kabeer Hospital boldly displayed the flag of the Zionist entity in her WhatsApp status, thereby endorsing the criminal act that occurred."

He went on to detail his official complaint to the Public Prosecutor's Office, requesting legal action against the nurse. Al-Duwaikh stressed that her actions demonstrated support for the Zionist entity and a disregard for Kuwait's State Security Law, particularly referencing Article Seven, which criminalizes such acts. This could lead to life imprisonment or a minimum of five years imprisonment.

Furthermore, Al-Duwaikh called upon Muslims in Kuwait and the broader Islamic world to combat the Zionist entity and its supporters in accordance with domestic and international laws. He suggested that even if direct confrontations across borders are not feasible, internal efforts can still significantly impact the Zionist entity.
