KUWAIT: Despite an outdoor work ban that is in place from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm every day during the summer, some construction companies continue to defy the ban in various parts of Kuwait. These photos taken yesterday between 12:00 pm and 2:00 pm show workers at construction sites in Farwaniya and Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh (Hasawi), working in non-shaded when the maximum outdoor temperature reached up to 50 C degrees in the shade. — Photos by Ben Garcia
