Bahrain Mirror: Bahrain's main opposition group Al-Wefaq National Islamic Society said that the "heinous terrorist crime that was committed at the hands of terrorism and sectarianism in Saihat in eastern Saudi Arabia Friday (October 16, 2015) evening, leaving 5 people martyred and others injured is condemned as it reflects immorality and inhumanity and a blatant absence of values and principles."
In its statement, Al-Wefaq further described this terrorist act as "dangerous and organized" and said that it "poses a real threat and calls for a reasonable collective stance in face of this huge moral and religious perversion."
"Targeting the mourners grieving over the tragedy of Imam Hussein, the son of Fatima the daughter of Prophet Muhammad (pbut), is part of a series of terrorist operations that emerged from a sectarian mentality fueled by some media outlets and religious platforms amid encouragement and obvious silence," Al-Wefaq added.
It concluded its statement by "offering condolences to the residents of the beloved Saihat in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia over this tragedy."
