KUWAIT: Firemen rescued two juveniles who almost drowned while swimming on Blajat beach Monday evening. The two Kuwaiti kids were swimming near the beach when strong waves almost swept them further out to the sea. They swam towards breakwater rocks and clung to them until help arrived, Kuwait Fire Service Department said. They were both in good health condition.

Meanwhile, firemen were able to free the hand of a seven-year-old child from a meat grinder Monday evening. The Arab boy was taken to Adan Hospital for a medical checkup, KFSD said.
