The State of Kuwait has expressed deep distress and concern at flagrant breaches of the Rohingya people's rights, namely their right to live.

The official Kuwaiti stance was re-affirmed by Jawaher Ibrahim Al-Duaij Al-Sabah, the state First Secretary, in her address on behalf of the permanent mission to the UN, to a General Assembly's session about human rights, the Kuwaiti news agency, KUNA, has reported.

She added that Kuwait also condemn in strongly-worded language continuous occupation of the Palestinian territories by the Israeli forces and their blatant acts of abuse against the unarmed Palestinian people, neglecting the international law, the international humanitarian law and various relevant resolutions of the UN Security Council.
