Meanwhile, Dr Khawari said the visit to the shooting club was the first activity the delegation made after they've completed treating the last cases of COVID-19 at the Kuwait field hospital, adding that work at the facility lasted for two years. He commended the achievements of Kuwait Shooting Sport Club internationally including at the Olympics, and thanked Osaimi and KSSC's board for arranging this visit and the hospitality the delegation received.
