Hundreds of people took to the march to protest against Israel in the capital of Bahrain
News » Incidents
Hundreds of Bahraini citizens demonstrated in Manama against the “occupying entity known as Israel”.
Despite Bahrain joining the Abraham Accords and normalizing relations with Israel, protesters denounce the presence of Israelis in the island kingdom, shouting “Death to Israel.”
Bahrain and Israel recognized each other as part of the 2020 Abraham Accords, but public support for the agreement in the kingdom has steadily declined.
The country, which has a Shiite majority ruled by a Sunni royal family, allowed minor protests during President Isaac Herzog's visit earlier this month.
