Workers strike at Kuwait airport for better working conditions

The right to strike is guaranteed for citizens in Kuwait, but such actions remain rare in the Gulf country. Foreign workers do not have the right to strike. "Airport traffic is very normal," Sheikh Salman Al-Hamoud Al-Sabah, head of the General Directorate of Civil Aviation, told AFP. Another official, Saleh Al-Fadaghi, the airport's director of operations, also said flights were not affected.
