Kuwait Invasion: The Evidence

Posted by:

A friend of mine shared this website on Facebook called Kuwait Evidence that has about 1,200 high resolution photos of the destruction left behind from the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait. The website is created by Adel Al-Yousifi and all the photos are his eyewitness account of the devastation he found when he returned home.

After checking on family and friends, he took his camera and began recording the devastation. Starting in the South, he made expeditions into the desert and then worked his way up the Coast, to the City, the Suburbs, and finally the North. Al-Yousifi took pictures every day from March till the last fire was put out in November.

The quality of the photographs is really amazing and the gallery is divided into the different types of damage suffered by each part of Kuwait during and after the invasion.

    I am trying to make contact with Adel Al Yousifi. I went to school with him in Clemson South Carolina from Aug 1974 until May 1976. I would like to talk with him and I have some old pictures to share with him from 1974-1976. I would appreciate any leads that anyone might have. A phone number or an e-mail address will do.

    Hey Assaf, this is the only email address we have from the website – info@evidence.org.kw
    Try it, since the site is owned and managed by Dr. Adel, he might get back to you. Good luck!
