    Kuwait Airways has denied reports claiming that it has suspended its air cargo operations, saying cargo services continue in accordance with approved operational procedures.

    The national carrier said its air cargo operations remain active and are being conducted in coordination with the relevant authorities. The airline also rejected reports suggesting that safety concerns had prompted a suspension of cargo services.

    Kuwait Airways said its cargo operations continue to comply with applicable safety and security standards. The clarification comes after reports circulated suggesting that the airline had halted cargo activities.

    The airline urged customers and the public to rely on official information regarding the status of its cargo services and not on unverified reports.

    Kuwait Airways continues to maintain cargo handling facilities at Kuwait International Airport, supporting the movement of general freight, perishables, refrigerated cargo, dangerous goods and other shipments. Its cargo facility operates around the clock for import and export shipments.

    The clarification provides reassurance to shippers, freight forwarders and other cargo customers relying on Kuwait Airways for air freight movements amid ongoing operational challenges in the region.
