In a major escalation targeting civilian infrastructure, Bahrain has accused Iran of conducting a drone strike on a water desalination plant in the Muharraq region. The Bahraini Ministry of Interior confirmed that the facility sustained material damage, marking the first time such a site has been targeted during the nine-day-old conflict.
Additionally, falling missile fragments from interception efforts injured three people and damaged a building at a local university. While authorities stated that water supplies remain unaffected, the strike has raised significant fears regarding the safety of essential civilian services across the Gulf. ( AL Jazeera)
