Families Moved Safely
Affected residents moved to Madinat Salman as repairs continue in Sitra
Families whose homes were damaged in the recent attack on Sitra have been relocated to temporary seafront flats in Madinat Salman, as repair work continues on affected properties.
The Ministry of Housing provided the units as part of emergency support measures, offering residents fully serviced apartments with parking and coastal views until their homes are restored. Residents say the move has eased the impact of displacement, with many describing the accommodation as a significant improvement over temporary shelter conditions.
Several residents expressed gratitude for the swift response, highlighting the sense of safety and reassurance provided. One resident praised the leadership of King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and the efforts of government teams that responded on the ground following the incident.
Others noted that authorities acted quickly to assess damage and arrange alternative housing, ensuring families were not left in makeshift conditions. Residents described the flats as spacious and well-equipped, with access to essential services.
Some families have begun adapting to their new surroundings; the seafront location offers opportunities for leisure activities such as walking and fishing. One resident said he shared images of the area with relatives abroad, describing it as one of the best temporary housing arrangements provided.
Officials said the relocation is temporary and part of ongoing efforts to support affected communities while reconstruction work in Sitra is completed.
