Kuwait Times is an English-language daily published in Kuwait. It is the first English language paper in the Persian Gulf region, and the oldest active newspaper in Kuwait.
History and profile
Kuwait Times was founded by Yousuf Saleh Alyan in 1961. The 16-page broadsheet provides in-depth reporting on local events and business news, analysis and editorials on local, regional, and international issues, and entertainment and sports news and features.
Since its founding in 1961, the Kuwait Times has branched out to include Kuwait News, an Arabic-language digital news outlet. In 2024, the Kuwait Times also launched Kuwait Times Archive, dedicated to historic content derived from the bound archives of Kuwait Times.
Kuwait Times' discontinued projects include the Friday Times, a free 40-page tabloid. It was the first tabloid in the country, offering local commentary, news, and analysis as well as entertainment, sports, and comprehensive features. Another discontinued Kuwait Times initiative was the sister Arabic daily newspaper, Alfajer Aljadeed, which was published for two years, following the invasion of Kuwait.
