The incident occurred at fuel storage depots connected to the Subiya electricity plant. This facility plays an important role in supporting Kuwait’s energy infrastructure. However, emergency teams immediately implemented safety procedures and followed approved response plans. Firefighters, safety officers, and security personnel worked together to control the flames. Consequently, they stopped the fire before it could damage other units inside the complex.
