KUWAIT CITY — Security agencies in Kuwait have busted a spy cell working for Iran's Revolutionary Guards to feed information on Kuwaiti and US targets, a newspaper reported on Saturday.
Al-Qabas, citing high-ranking security sources, said at least seven Kuwaiti men were arrested, some of whom served in the interior and defence ministries, as well as bidoon, or stateless Arabs, and other Arabs.
Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast, on Tehran's Arabic-language television Al-Alam, denied the report as "utterly baseless" and part of propaganda efforts against the Islamic republic.
But Al-Qabas said security agencies were still hunting for six to seven others suspected of being members of the cell, which was dismantled in a coordinated effort between the secret service and army intelligence.
Cell members had taken pictures of Kuwaiti military and other vital targets in addition to US military sites.
