Really?? Stolen??? 20,000 U.S M-16s stolen from unguarded warehouse in Kuwait

The Interior Ministry said thieves broke into a warehouse and stole a huge amount of firearms and ammunition. The ministry said 20,000 U.S.-origin M-16 assault rifles and 15,000 rounds for 9mm pistols were stolen.

“There were no guards during the break-in,” the ministry said on April 7.

The ministry said the target was a warehouse of the Interior Ministry in Subiya, Middle East Newsline reported. The statement said thieves broke three doors and removed the entire contents of the warehouse.

Kuwait has been a major defense client of the United States. The U.S.military has stationed some 13,000 troops, most of them assigned to logistics, to the Gulf Cooperation Council sheikdom.
