Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi is demanding the release of four Iranians detained by Kuwait, which suspects them of trying to infiltrate the Persian Gulf nation.
“In clear attempt to sow discord, Kuwait has unlawfully attacked an Iranian boat and detained 4 of our citizens in the Persian Gulf,” Araghchi posted Wednesday on X. “This illegal act took place near island used by the U.S. to attack Iran.”
“We demand immediate release of our nationals and reserve right to respond,” the minister added, without addressing the allegations of an attempt to infiltrate.
On Tuesday, Kuwaiti state media reported that authorities arrested four individuals described as members of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) who were trying to infiltrate the country to “carry out hostile acts.”
The Iranians tried to enter Kuwait on May 1 aboard a fishing boat and clashed with Kuwaiti soliders, Kuwaiti state media said. Iran denied the reports in a statement published by the semi-official Tasnim News Agency, saying the four were “carrying out routine maritime patrol duties” for the Iranian coast guard and entered Kuwaiti waters only because of a “disruption in the navigation system.”
The incident, if confirmed, would be the first known attempted military infiltration by Iran into a neighboring Arab country during the war.
