However, Kuwait will allow the cargo flights from these four countries. Thailand-based News Online has confirmed this, quoting Kuwait’s state news agency Kuna.

Kuwait Directorate General for Civil Aviation (ODGCA) on Monday suspended direct commercial flights from Nepal, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka until further notice.
