British embassy in Kuwait has temporarily suspended its services due to an increased threat, local media reported on Thursday. A statement released by the embassy website said that \"because of an increased threat toward the British Embassy, we have temporarily suspended British Embassy service.\" \"Whilst the threat is targeted against the Embassy itself, we cannot rule out threats against other British interests in Kuwait. We therefore advise that British organizations and businesses in Kuwait review the security procedures they have in place,\" it said. There is a general threat from terrorism in Kuwait. Terrorists continue to issue statements threatening to carry out attacks in the Gulf region. These include references to attacks on Western including European interests, including residential compounds, military, oil, transport and aviation interests.
