The evictions follow a recent crackdown by Kuwaiti authorities on properties failing to meet safety regulations.

However, the suddenness of the evictions, coupled with the lack of utilities during a heatwave, has sparked outrage.
Community leaders are calling for a more humane and transparent approach to handling building code violations. They advocate for a balance between enforcing regulations and ensuring the well-being of expatriate residents.
