The US embassy in Bahrain has issued a chilling warning that ‘terrorist groups’ are planning to attack American citizens in the Gulf state.
In a statement, officials have warned Americans in the country to avoid hotels in Manama as they could be targeted.
It reads: ‘Bahrain: The U.S. Embassy reminds U.S. citizens to exercise caution and maintain vigilance. Drone and missile attacks from Iran continue. The U.S. Embassy has advised U.S. citizens in Bahrain that hotels might be a target for attacks, and encourages U.S. citizens to avoid hotels in Manama. Terrorist groups and those inspired by such organizations are intent on attacking U.S. citizens abroad. Terrorist groups continue plotting possible attacks in Bahrain. Terrorists may attack with little or no warning
Tension in the Middle East has further escalated since the k!ling of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
The Iranian government has vowed it will never surrender as it rejected an ultimatum from US President Donald Trump to lay down its weapons.
