The story
KUNA was established in 1956. It was reorganized in 1976 as an independent body, functioning in practice as a branch of the Ministry of Information, although it has an independent budget.
The agency has a section with the title of Health and Environment which covers regularly updated news on environmental issues.
As of 2009, the news agency had offices and correspondents in 33 countries.
KUNA is an active member of the Federation of Arab News Agencies (FANA) that includes the national news agencies of 18 Arab countries.
