Kuwait revokes 1,060 citizenship claims in largest-ever fraud crackdown

In July 2025, Kuwait revoked over 1,060 citizenships, uncovering widespread fraud involving forged documents and fabricated family trees. This action is part of a larger campaign that has stripped over 40,000 people of citizenship since early 2024. The government defends the move as vital for combating corruption, while critics raise human rights concerns about statelessness and due process.
