Bahrain has strongly condemned an alleged attack by Yemen’s Houthi rebels on an electricity distribution station in Madina, terming it a flagrant violation of the “sanctity of Islamic holy sites and an assault on the sentiments of Muslims around the world”, Al Jazeera reports.

Shura Council representatives have also expressed Bahrain’s solidarity with Saudi Arabia and supported its right to “safeguard its sovereignty, security and stability”.

The statement adds that Saudi Arabia’s security is an “integral part” of that of Bahrain.
