KUWAIT, Aug 29 (KUNA) -- The Kuwaiti Cabinet on Tuesday expressed its heartfelt sympathies over the destruction that Hurricane Harvey, which has caused unprecedented flooding in the southern US state of Texas, left in its wake. In its routine meeting, the Cabinet said that Kuwait's heart goes out to all of the victims of the catastrophic storm.
Hurricane Harvey slammed into Texas late Friday as a Category 4 hurricane with winds of 130 miles per hour (209 km per hour), making it the strongest storm to hit the state since 1961. (end) nam
