Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says Kuwait has ‘unlawfully’ attacked an Iranian boat and detained four Iranian citizens in the Gulf, adding that Tehran demands their release and reserves the right to respond.

Yesterday, Kuwait said it had arrested four people affiliated with Iran’s Revolutionary Guards who attempted to infiltrate the Gulf state by sea.
