In a landmark achievement for global medicine, Kuwait has successfully conducted the world's first long-distance robotic surgery across continents. A surgical team from Jaber Al-Ahmad Hospital performed the procedure remotely on a patient in Brazil, covering a distance of more than 12,000 kilometers. This feat, enabled by Zain's advanced international connectivity and supported by the Kuwait Foundation for the Advancement of Sciences (KFAS), is now under official consideration by the Guinness Book of World Records.
The successful operation was hailed by senior officials as a direct result of Kuwait's strategic push toward a digital future for healthcare. His Excellency the Minister of Health, Dr. Ahmed Al-Awadhi, stated that this accomplishment aligns with the visionary policies of the Amir, steering Kuwait toward sustainable and innovative medical solutions.
Key partners emphasized the broader significance of the event. Zain Group's CEO described it as building "bridches of the future between medicine and technology," positioning Kuwait as a hub for digital medical innovation. Similarly, KFAS highlighted the initiative as a model for using cutting-edge technology to serve humanity and solidify Kuwait's role as a center for science and innovation.
