Kuwait's Fish Market Thrives Despite Gulf Tensions

Even during war, Kuwait's fish market in Sharq stays busy! Despite blocked sea routes, supply stays steady thanks to safe local fishing zones and overland imports from Saudi Arabia/UAE. Prices dropped slightly, with some fish like large zubaidi down from 25 to 17-19 dinars/kg. Fishing boats still head out daily, and authorities have secured safe zones. Logistics shifted from sea to land, but the market adapts and business continues as usual. https://www.thenationalnews.com/news/gulf/2026/04/10/business-as-usual-how-kuwaits-fish-market-has-remained-buoyant-in-gulfs-troubled-waters/
