The country of Bahrain recently gave shocking statements. Bahrain said on Monday that it broke up a plot by militants backed by Iran earlier this year to start attacks on diplomats and foreigners in the island nation that is home to the US Navy’s 5th Fleet. The statement came hours after Saudi state television and a Bahraini local newspaper suggested the plot was new in their reporting on Sunday night, just days after the island kingdom normalized terms with Israel. Bahraini government officials, who routinely claim to break up plots by militants backed by Iran, did not respond to requests for comment from a leading daily over the confusion.

The details of the plot came out publicly as tensions between Iran and the US remained high after the Trump government claimed to have re-invoked all United Nations sanctions on Tehran over its nuclear programme, something opposed by other world powers. The militants reportedly sought revenge for the US drone strike that killed Iranian General Qassem Soleimani in January, something long threatened by his colleagues in Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard.

Iran’s mission to the UN rejected Bahrain’s request of Tehran being involved as just “another instance in a long line of preposterous and false allegations, with no basis in truth.” “It appears there is no limit to Iran-bashing by the US and its client states in the region, who are trying to divert attention from their recent betrayal to Palestinians and their own people,” mission spokesman Alireza Miryousefi reported a leading daily.
