Bahrain Mirror: Bahrain has withdrawn its ambassador to Iran Rashid Al-Dosari and asked the Iranian Charge d'Affaires, Mohammad Babaei, to leave the island kingdom within 72 hours after he was declared persona non-grata.

The Bahraini Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement that this decision comes "in light of the continued Iranian interference in the affairs of the Kingdom of Bahrain without any legal deterrent or moral limits as well as its unlawful attempts and practices to create sectarian strife and impose its hegemony and control over the entire region through reprehensible tools and means that are not limited to offending statements from senior officials, but also include supporting subversion, terrorism and incitement to violence through misleading media campaigns as well as assisting terrorist groups in the smuggling of weapons and explosives, and training their members, and harbouring fugitives from justice".
