Kuwaiti TV host jailed for supporting Iran amid aggression

The Kuwaiti-born presenter, identified as Zainab Dashti, received the jail term after Kuwaiti officials found the content posted online to be pro-Iran.

Axar.az reports, citing Mehr News Agency, the Court of Appeals in Kuwait recently upheld the verdict against her.

Dashti’s case has turned into one of the most debated media cases in Kuwait over the past few months.

The case has drawn the attention of human rights activists and pro-democracy campaigners, especially amid worsening restrictions and repressive measures against journalists and political activists in the country.
