Bahrain summons Iraqi envoy as pro-Iranian attacks persist in Gulf

Apr 14, 2026

Manama [Bahrain], April 14: Bahrain has summoned an Iraqi envoy over drone attacks launched at the kingdom and other states in the region, which persist despite the US-Iran ceasefire.
The summoning of the diplomat on Monday followed similar action by Saudi Arabia the previous day, signalling growing regional concern over the activities of pro-Iranian groups based in Iraq and complicating Baghdad's efforts to rebuild ties with its Arab neighbours.
Bahrain's Ministry of Foreign Affairs strongly condemned the "continued malicious drone attacks" launched from Iraq towards Bahrain and several Gulf Cooperation Council countries, the state news agency BNA reported. (Agencies)
