On this day, 36 years ago, Kuwait was invaded. Eight days later, former Prime Minister Bob Hawke announced Australia’s decision to join the US-led Coalition to liberate Kuwait. Along with coalition partners, Australian efforts played a significant role in restoring peace and security to Kuwait and the region. Today, we honour the dedication of those who served and remember the resilience of the Kuwaiti people.

مثل هذا اليوم، قبل 36 عامًا، تعرضت دولة الكويت للغزو. وبعد ثمانية أيام، أعلن رئيس الوزراء الأسترالي السابق بوب هوك عن قرار أستراليا الانضمام إلى التحالف الذي تقوده الولايات المتحدة لتحرير دولة الكويت. وقد لعبت الجهود الأسترالية، جنبًا إلى جنب مع شركاء التحالف، دورًا مهمًا في استعادة السلام والأمن لدولة الكويت والمنطقة. واليوم، نكرّم تفاني من خدموا ونتذكر صمود الشعب الكويتي.
