Manama, Bahrain – Bahraini authorities announced that 32 civilians were injured in an Iranian attack targeting the Sitra area. This latest incident represents an escalation of hostilities in the Gulf and reflects their serious repercussions for civilians and vital infrastructure.

Injuries and material damage

Official sources stated that the attack resulted in varying degrees of civilian casualties. The injured were immediately transported to hospitals for treatment. Simultaneously, emergency and ambulance teams began providing medical and security support to the area. The objective was to contain the situation and prevent its escalation.

This comes amid ongoing regional threats and escalating tensions with Iran.

And this attack occurs at a time of heightened military tensions in the Gulf.

This raises widespread concerns within the international community about the impact of these events on civilians and the overall stability of the region.
