A major row has erupted in Kuwait with a death sentence for three people charged for spying for Iran. Kuwait withdrew its ambassador from Iran and plans to file a protest.
Minister of Foreign Affairs of Kuwait Muhammad Al-Sabah warned that his country will expel any Iranian diplomat suspected in spying.
Two Iranian citizens and one from Kuwait were found guilty for sending secret information to the Revolutionary Guards of Iran.
The Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs denies the accusations, saying that there is no evidence.
Relations between the two countries soured after Operation Shield, when Arab states of the Persian Gulf sent military support to Bahrain.
Bahrain saw Shiite protests against Sunni authorities. Military forces were used against the protesters. The streets are now patrolled by the military, Vesti.ru reports.
