PwC closed its offices in several Gulf countries on Wednesday for the remainder of the week as a “precaution”, a source with knowledge told AFP.

The offices of the British consulting group will be closed in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE and Kuwait, the source said, requesting anonymity to discuss sensitive matters, as Iran threatened to hit US and Israel-linked economic targets in the Middle East.
