Kuwait said deporting 60 Lebanese for alleged Hezbollah ties

Kuwait is to deport 60 Lebanese for alleged links to Hezbollah in the latest Gulf Arab move against the Shiite militant group, a local newspaper reports.

Those to be deported all had permanent residency which has been revoked, Al-Qabas daily says, adding that those classified as “dangerous cases” are given just two days to leave the country.

It is the second wave of deportations from Kuwait reported since Gulf Arab states blacklisted Hezbollah as a terrorist group earlier this month.
