Sheikh Meshal Al Ahmed Al Jaber made the announcement Monday in an address to the nation as the Muslim holy fasting month of Ramadan draws to an end this week. He called the decision the will of the Kuwaiti people, according to the state-run KUNA news agency. Sheikh Meshal cited a Kuwaiti law allowing its emir to dissolve parliament, though it was him making the speech in the place of the country’s 85-year-old ruler, Sheikh Nawaf Al Ahmad Al Sabah.

That briefly reinstated the former lawmakers. It wasn’t immediately clear if the order Monday took effect immediately, though analysts had expected parliament...
