After a rare winter rain, patches of green have sprouted along the roadsides at Kuwait’s vast onshore Burgan field, the second-largest oilfield in the world. The sight might seem unremarkable — just another sign of life returning to the desert after rains — but beneath this seemingly ordinary renewal lies an extraordinary story of technological triumph over one of history’s greatest environmental catastrophes.
For Kuwaitis, these fragile patches of green are far more than seasonal regrowth. They are symbols of hope — tangible proof that land poisoned by war can be healed. Since 2021, a soil rehabilitation project has quietly reversed the scars left by the worst oil spill in human memory.

Livestock prices rise ahead of Eid amid regional tensions
KUWAIT: As Eid Al-Adha approaches, prices at Kuwait’s livestock markets have risen compared to previous years, with vendors and buyers attributing the increase to regional conditions, supply shortages and higher demand. Several residents visiting the livestock market in Al Rai this week said prices for sheep have increased by between KD 10 and KD 50 depending on the breed and size, while others noted that convenience, cleanliness and organization have improved compared to previous years.
At the Kabd livestock market, vendors admitted prices of cattle had doubled due to the regional conflict. A Jersey bull that earlier cost KD 350 now sells for KD 700, while Somali breeds cost KD 550 and higher. At the market, Sudanese sheep are selling for KD 115, while Arabian breeds including Nuaimi sheep are in KD 130 to 170 range. The only affordable breeds at the market are Somali goats and sheep, which can be bought for KD 60 to 80, although their small size may put some buyers off. Abdul Rida al-Din, who was visiting the Al Rai market to purchase a sheep for Eid sacrifice, said prices have noticeably increased compared to previous years. “The market is very expensive compared to previous years,” he said, adding that sheep that previously sold for around KD 90 to KD 100 are now being sold for around KD 130 to KD 160.
