Bahrain Mirror: Bahrain's King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa expressed his pride and appreciation of his country's participation in the Saudi-led coalition war on Yemen.
In a speech he delivered before the Royal Special Force during his visit on Wednesday (October 19, 2016), Bahrain's king "praised the BDF (Bahrain Defense Forces) troops' continuous participation, alongside their brethren from the Saudi-led Arab Coalition forces, in the "Operation Restoring Hope" in Yemen and their contribution to the humanitarian relief operations there."
The King's remarks come only days after the Saudi-led coalition, joined by Bahrain, acknowledged its responsibility for the massacre that took place in Sanaa, claiming the lives of more than 130 martyrs, and injuring hundreds.
