Bahrain's Interior Ministry reported that sirens were activated in the country on Tuesday evening, according to N12. The cause of the alerts has not been disclosed.
Bahrain's Interior Ministry officially confirmed Tuesday evening that sirens were heard in the country, marking the first official acknowledgment after a day of unverified reports. The ministry's brief statement did not elaborate on the cause or source of the alerts. The confirmation comes as the seventh wave of explosion reports, tracked by The Zioneer since Sunday, was reported earlier today — the latest of a series of unverified claims that have now received official validation.
The Zioneer first reported on explosions in Manama at 04:52 Jerusalem on Tuesday, followed by a second wave at 05:05 Jerusalem, and subsequent waves throughout the day. All earlier reports, from the first wave to the seventh, were based on single unverified sources. The ministry's statement now provides a confirmed official account, though it does not disclose the cause or origin of the alerts.
As The Zioneer reported earlier this week, sirens and explosions have been a recurring phenomenon in Bahrain since Sunday, with multiple waves reported. The US military conducted self-defense strikes in the region on June 10, as previously reported, but no direct link to the current alerts has been established.
The cause of the sirens remains undisclosed, and the ministry stated the incident is under investigation. No reports of casualties, interceptions, or damage have been confirmed.
