KUWAIT CITY: Kuwait’s Emir Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah issued a decree on Thursday to dissolve the parliament, Kuwait News Agency reported.

The emiri decree was based on the national assembly’s “violation of the constitutional principles,” the news agency added.

The assembly was elected in June 2023 following a proposal by the prime minister that was approved by the cabinet.
