Kuwaiti Emir to Go to US for Post-Surgery Treatment, State Media Report

DOHA (Sputnik) – The elderly emir of Kuwait, Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Jaber al-Sabah, will travel to the United States for treatment after having a successful operation, the state news agency said on Wednesday.

The Kuwaiti crown prince and the emir’s half-brother, Sheikh Nawaf Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, has temporarily assumed some of Sheikh Sabah’s constitutional duties.

The 91-year-old ruler was admitted to a hospital and undergone surgery over the weekend, according to KUNA. The reason for it was not disclosed.

Last year, Kuwait acknowledged that the emir had suffered an unspecified medical ‘setback’ that required him to be hospitalised.
