KUWAIT CITY, Oct 23: The Public Relations Department of Kuwait Municipality has emphasized that inspection teams from the General Cleaning and Road Occupancy Departments in both Jahra and Ahmadi Governorates have intensified their efforts.

In this context, Faisal Al-Otaibi, Chairman of the Committee for Studying and Updating Spring Camp Sites, stressed the importance of adhering to the official camping period, which runs from November 15 to March 15, 2025. He warned that inspection teams will not hesitate to remove any camps set up before the official start date. Nawaf Al-Mutairi, Director of the General Cleaning and Road Occupancy Department in Jahra Governorate, reported that field

teams conducted inspections at 10 camping sites in northern Kuwait.
