Kuwait TV band Cairo - Arab Today Kuwait TV band performed for over two hours a folk concert in Egypt, carrying a message of love from the people of Kuwait to the Egyptian nation. The message was delivered through the band's performance within the Ministry of Information's participation in the media and cultural events taking place on sidelines of the Cairo International Book Fair.
