Waad Allah Brigades, a Bahraini Shi’ite militia, posted a video on social media threatening an Israeli delegation that was set to attend a business conference in Manama, Bahrain.

The animated video, which contains captions in both Arabic and Hebrew, details a plan for a drone attack on the Israeli delegation’s hotel.

The Israeli delegation, which was meant to include Israeli Economy Minister Eli Cohen and other senior officials, canceled its plans to attend the conference due to threats of terrorism.

The activist Analilia Mejia leads by nearly 20 percentage points with 94% of the votes counted.
“Visas provided to foreign students to live, study and work in the United States are a privilege, not a right,” the department spokesman told JNS.
“We will not allow Iraq’s terrorist militias, backed by Iran, to threaten American lives or interests,” stated Scott Bessent, the U.S. treasury secretary.
Witness statements allege that Jewish students were singled out, monitored and blocked from entering the event, with some attendees reporting antisemitic remarks heard while waiting in line.
“His venom for Jews is part of the sickening rise in antisemitism and attacks against believers,” prosecutors said.
U.S. President Donald Trump said that the naval blockade of Iranian ports will remain in force despite the announcement from Iran.
