REFERENCE
(1) Fact check article by An-Nahar: “The result: Although Al-Ghanim was already attacked on Tuesday, 10K1 2019, the video being broadcast is not related to this incident. What is seen in it is a military parade of the Emiri Guard Authority showing how to protect an important figure, as part of the activities of the Gulf Defense and Aviation Exhibition that was held at the exhibition grounds in Kuwait, from Tuesday 10 to Thursday 12 of it.”

* The version of disinformation checked by An-Nahar claimed the attack directed to Marzouq Al-Ghanim, the speaker of Kuwaiti National Assembly.
(2) Wikipedia: “Marzouq al-Ghanim (b. 3 November 1968, Abdullah Al-Salem, Kuwait) is the current speaker of the Kuwaiti National Assembly, representing the second district. Al-Ghanim earned a BA in mechanical engineering and worked for Boubyan Petrochemicals before being elected to the National Assembly in 2006.[1] He is the son of Faiza Al-Kharafi. He was elected as the Speaker in 2013.[2]”
