Please be aware that planned demonstrations may occur this evening Sunday, 21 October 2012 at different locations - the Al Irada Square in front of the National Assembly in Kuwait City, the Kuwait Justice Palace downtown Kuwait City and the Kuwait Cabinet Office. These demonstrations may spread to surrounding areas of Kuwait.

The above email was received by me earlier today. They are usually pretty accurate.
