Bahrain not planning to buy Israeli anti-missile system: Al Hammadi
The Minister of Information Affairs and Minister of Representatives’ and Shura Council Affairs Isa Abdulrahman Al Hammadi said the report by Fox News quoting the Ministry of Foreign Affairs about an Iron Dome anti-missile system was not true.
Answering a query by Bahraini daily Al Wasat about the report, Al Hammadi said the foreign ministry had contacted the television channel and demanded a correction of the statement.
“The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states are looking into buying an anti-missile defense system from the United States, and there are no attempts whatsoever to purchase the system from Israel as claimed by the television channel,” Al Hammadi said.
