Manama – Saba:
Bahrain is witnessing a widespread popular movement in support of the Palestinian cause and rejection of the genocidal war waged by the enemy against the Gaza Strip, following a series of successive massacres over the past few days that have claimed the lives of hundreds of martyrs.
Dozens of people held a sit-in in "October 7" Square in the Adliya area of the capital, Manama, to reject the war of genocide and demand the cancellation of the normalization agreement with the enemy.
Activists raised banners reading "Palestine is my cause" and "The enemy is violating the nation." The Bahraini National Initiative Against Normalization with the "Zionist Enemy" issued a statement renewing its demand to halt the aggression, sever ties with the enemy, and boycott companies that support it.
The statement, signed by 27 institutions and associations, affirmed "adherence to the principled and unwavering position of the Bahraini people in standing with the Palestinian people in liberating their land and establishing a Palestinian state on all Palestinian national soil." The statement also called on the Bahraini government to "assume its legitimate, national, and pan-Arab responsibility by listening to the voice of the people and their living conscience, which demands the closure of the enemy's embassy and the severing of ties with the Zionist entity, which the International Court of Justice has condemned for committing genocide, apartheid, and ethnic cleansing."
Since March 18, the enemy has resumed its war of extermination in Gaza, reneging on a 58-day ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement with Hamas, brokered by Qatar and Egypt and supported by the United States.
According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, 1,249 citizens have been killed since March 18, and 3,022 others have been injured, the majority of whom are women and children.
