A camel that fell from a livestock carrier into the sea near Shuwaikh Port in Kuwait has been rescued from drowning, reports Al-Rai daily.

A spokesperson of Kuwait Ports Authority Dr Yahya Abdal explained that the camel had arrived via ship from Doha along with 24 other crossbred camels.

A team of workers had surrounded the area in which the camels would be offloaded, but the last one fell off the ship into the water.

The spokesperson denied rumours that circulated on social media about the camel jumping from the ship.
