Kuwait's Emir Sheikh Jaber dies

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sheikh Jaber had

led Kuwait for nearly 30 years

 

 

 

The

emir of oil-rich Kuwait, Sheikh Jaber al-Ahmad al-Sabah, has died, prompting

40 days of mourning.

Sheikh Jaber, 78, had led the country since December 1977, but

suffered ill health and was seldom seen in public after suffering a minor

stroke in 2001.

Concerns have grown in recent years for the Gulf state's future

leadership.

As expected, Crown Prince Sheikh Saad al-Abdullah al-Sabah, 76

and also said to be in poor health, has been appointed emir, the cabinet

announced.

The announcement of the emir's death was

made on state television. Government offices will close for three days.
