Three explosions were heard and sirens activated in Bahrain at 11:02 Jerusalem on Thursday, according to local reports. The cause and extent of the events are not yet confirmed. The alerts follow a series of sirens and explosions reported in Bahrain since early morning.
At 11:02 Jerusalem on Thursday, three explosions were heard and sirens activated in Bahrain, continuing a series of alerts that began in the early morning hours. The sirens at 11:02 follow a similar alert at 10:59 Jerusalem, as reported by The Zioneer, and a wave of explosions reported at 04:57 Jerusalem. The cause of the latest events remains unconfirmed, and no interceptions or casualties have been reported.
The sequence of alerts in Bahrain on Thursday began with unverified reports at 03:36 Jerusalem of Iranian ballistic missile launches toward US bases in Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait. By 04:57 Jerusalem, explosions were reported in Bahrain, and by 10:59 Jerusalem, sirens were activated again. Israeli media outlets N12 and ynet later corroborated the sirens, and regional reports confirmed the explosions. The escalation has been tracked by The Zioneer through multiple updates.
The Zioneer has reported that the alerts are occurring amid ongoing US strikes on Iranian sites and Iranian retaliatory launches in the region. Earlier this week, The Zioneer reported on US self-defense strikes and Iranian responses affecting Bahrain and other Gulf states.
The exact source of the explosions and the reason for the sirens remain unverified. No official confirmation from Bahraini authorities has been provided, and it is unclear whether the events are due to incoming fire, interceptions, or other causes.
