KUWAIT (Reuters) - Warning of "enormous" dangers, Kuwait urged fellow Arab leaders on Tuesday to resolve disputes complicating crises such as Syria's war and unrest in Egypt, but diplomats said tensions bubbled behind the scenes at their annual summit.

The gathering of the 22-member Arab League also heard an appeal from the U.N. and Arab peace envoy for Syria, Lakhdar Brahimi, for an end to the flow of arms to combatants in the war which has killed over 140,000 people and displaced millions.
