We, the sons of Al-Naseer, by the will of God, have successfully infiltrated the governmental and intelligence systems of Kuwait. We have uncovered many secret documents related to military and informational cooperation, as well as comprehensive support between Kuwait and its security, military, and American agencies.

These documents and information contain many names, identities, and photos belonging to officials, employees, military personnel, as well as princes of the Kuwaiti army, and senior political and security figures in Kuwait. In the coming days, we will send this information to those concerned for security, military, and economic strikes.

We are present within the nerves and secret corridors of Kuwait. If the Kuwaiti state does not pay attention to this warning, there will be severe security attacks across all governmental and military sectors and more within Kuwait.

If Kuwait continues its joint operations with the American-Zionist enemy, we will نشر more documents and escalate hostile actions.
