Bahrain's interior ministry issues alerts of potential threats
The ministry urged residents to stay calm and move to safety as Iran claimed drone strikes on a U.S. radar and CENTCOM reported no damage.
- On Nov 15, 2026, Bahrain's interior ministry issued two alerts urging residents to move to a safe location, the first such warnings by the Gulf country since September.
- These warnings followed a claim by The Revolutionary Guards two days earlier that they attacked a U.S. early-warning radar at Al-Rifaa, citing "hostile US actions."
- Intercepting two Iranian drones, the U.S. military denied the attack claim, though no immediate confirmation came from Bahraini authorities on the incident.
- Bahrain Interior Minister Shaikh Rashid provided no further details on the threats, leaving residents and Fifth Fleet personnel unable to assess the specific danger.
- The uncertainty surrounding a potential US-Iran deal aimed at ending the nearly nine-month-old war adds to broader regional volatility and heightened security concerns.
