Indian Envoy Visits Mortuary, Injured Nationals After Kuwait Airport Attack

India's Ambassador to Kuwait Paramita Tripathi visited the mortuary where the mortal remains of an Indian national killed in an attack on Kuwait International Airport were kept and met injured compatriots undergoing treatment at hospitals, as the embassy coordinated repatriation and assistance efforts. 

The Indian national was killed, and several others were injured when the airport came under attack on Wednesday amid escalating hostilities



between Iran and the US.

In a social media post late Wednesday night, the Embassy of India in Kuwait said Tripathi visited Kuwait's Central Mortuary, where the mortal remains of the deceased were brought. 

The ambassador also met Brigadier Abdulrahim Al-Awadhi, General Manager of the General Department of Criminal Evidence, and conveyed appreciation for the "prompt and sensitive support" extended by the Kuwaiti authorities.
