Bahrain says Iran struck hotel, residential buildings in Manama

MANAMA, March 6, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Bahrain said Friday that Iran had struck a hotel and two residential buildings in the capital Manama, correcting a previous announcement that two hotels and one residential building were hit.

The attack came a day after an Iranian missile strike sparked a blaze at Bahrain's main state-owned oil refinery, as Tehran pressed attacks across the Gulf.

"Iranian aggression targeted a hotel & 2 residential buildings in Manama," Bahrain's interior ministry posted on X, reporting "no loss of life".

It said the attack sparked a fire in one of the residential buildings, which had been extinguished.
