Early on Wednesday, Kuwaiti authorities announced they've launched a nation-wide search for an unidentified woman who was filmed dancing in the street, Al Anba newspaper reported

This comes days after a video of the woman dancing went viral on social media, sparking outrage among users who deemed her dance moves "provocative" and "unacceptable." 

An anonymous police source told Al Anba that officers are now searching for the woman, who is accused of committing an "indecent act in public."
