On Sunday, the Kuwait Municipality announced they successfully extinguished a fire at the waste site located south of the seventh ring road using municipal equipment present at the scene.
Mohammad Sandan, Director of the Public Relations Department, stated in a press release that the recent high temperatures in open areas with flammable waste contributed to the fire's outbreak.
Sandan also reported a significant increase in the amount of rubble and waste removed from in front of commercial and residential properties across all six governorates over the past two days. The waste removed on Thursday and Friday amounted to approximately 568 tons, representing a 400 percent increase from the usual rate of 100 to 150 tons. Most of this waste was flammable and exceeded the site's capacity.
