Kuwait Health Ministry adds electronic leave to smart fingerprint system.
KUWAIT CITY, Apr 6: The official spokesperson for the Ministry of Health, Dr. Abdullah Al-Sanad, announced that the ministry’s central operations room had received reports early Monday morning of projectiles and shrapnel falling in a residential area in northern Kuwait as a result of the Iranian aggression.
In a press statement, Dr. Al-Sanad said that medical emergency teams and ambulance units immediately responded to the incident at the highest level of preparedness. Paramedics treated two women at the scene, providing the necessary medical care without the need for hospital transfer. A third injured person was transported to the emergency department at Al-Jahra Hospital for further assessment and treatment.
He added that emergency departments also received several individuals who arrived at Al-Jahra Hospital on their own, bringing the total number of cases treated — including those attended on-site, transported by ambulance, or self-referred — to six. The injuries reported ranged from superficial lacerations to the head and limbs, temporary hearing loss caused by loud explosions, and minor trauma from falls due to the blast impact.
Dr. Al-Sanad confirmed that all cases were stable and had received the necessary medical attention in accordance with approved protocols, with no serious complications recorded. He noted that field response teams conducted a thorough survey of the affected area immediately after initial medical interventions to ensure that no additional injuries went unreported, as part of the ministry’s ongoing health emergency response measures.
The spokesperson reaffirmed the full readiness of Kuwait’s health system to handle all types of emergencies through a continuous 24-hour operational framework. He urged citizens and residents to follow official guidelines and adhere to instructions issued by the competent authorities to safeguard public safety.
