The Bahraini authorities have stripped 69 people and their family members of their citizenship for “expressing support for Iran’s attacks.”
“Elchi” reports that the Ministry of Interior (MOI) of Bahrain has released information regarding this matter.
The MOI statement noted that these citizens expressed support in relation to Iran’s attacks.
It should be recalled that the US and Israel launched military operations against Iran on February 28. As a result, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and a number of high-ranking officials were killed. Following this, Iran began launching strikes against targets identified in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Bahrain, Kuwait, Iraq, and Cyprus, where military bases of the US and its allies are located, in addition to Israel.
Iran, the US, and their allies reached an agreement on a two-week ceasefire on the night of April 8, 2026. On April 11-12, negotiations were held between Iran and the US in Islamabad with the mediation of Pakistan. The talks, which lasted for hours, ended without results due to differences in the parties’ positions.
According to foreign media, the next round of negotiations between Iran and the US was supposed to be held in Islamabad on April 27, but shortly before that, Trump announced that he had canceled his representatives’ visit to Pakistan.
