Iran's foreign ministry on Tuesday condemned Kuwait's arrest of four people it said were affiliated with Iran's Revolutionary Guards, saying they were on maritime patrol and entered the Gulf country's territorial waters due to "disruption in their navigation."
 

The ministry rejected Kuwait's statements saying that Iran was planning "hostile actions" against the Gulf country.
