The Bahrain Human Rights Watch Society (BHRWS) has released its first monitoring report documenting civilian casualties and property damage resulting from recent attacks targeting residential areas in the Kingdom of Bahrain.

According to the report, several neighbourhoods, particularly in Sitra City, were hit by drone strikes, causing injuries to civilians, including children, and damage to homes and private property.

The incidents raise concerns over the protection of civilians and adherence to international humanitarian law.

The report, prepared by the BHRWS monitoring team, is based on field visits to hospitals and temporary shelters, enabling direct assessment of the conditions of the injured and affected families and evaluation of medical and humanitarian services provided.

It also highlights the response efforts by Bahraini authorities, including medical care for the injured, the provision of emergency shelters, and measures to maintain public security and stability.

“The protection of civilians is a fundamental principle of international law,” said Faisal Fulad, Secretary-General of the BHRWS. “Respect for UN principles and international humanitarian law is essential for ensuring regional security and stability.”
