Bahrain urges residents to take cover amid missile alert

Bahrain urged residents to take cover after sirens were activated following reports of incoming fire, the interior ministry said.

“Residents are requested to remain calm and head to the nearest safe location,” the ministry said in a post on X.

The warning comes as Bahrain has faced repeated missile and drone attacks since the start of the war in February. The country hosts US military assets and is a close regional ally of Washington.
