It said the explosives were found in a farm in Abdali, near the border with Iraq, and in two houses in undisclosed locations. At the end of July, Kuwait said it had broken up a five-member cell of alleged members of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) group.

In June a Saudi bomber blew himself up in a Shiite mosque in Kuwait City, killing 26 people and wounding hundreds. The militant ISIS group claimed responsibility for the attack. Last month, Kuwait said it had broken up a five-member cell of alleged ISIS militants.
