In a tense escalation of the ongoing conflict, Qatar’s Interior Ministry has issued a stern public notice on social media platform X, urging citizens not to post videos or photos of any incidents. This directive comes on the fourth day of war between Iran and its adversaries, with similar alerts emerging from Bahrain.
The ministry explicitly advised against gathering near accident sites, approaching event locations, or publishing clips related to ongoing field developments. ‘Gathering at incident sites or sharing related content can lead to legal consequences,’ the notice stated. ‘Such actions hinder officials’ work, slow response times, and jeopardize public safety.’
Bahrain’s Interior Ministry echoed these concerns, calling on residents to remain calm after air raid sirens sounded. ‘Seek the nearest safe shelter immediately,’ their X post read, emphasizing composure amid rising threats.
Reports from Iran’s Shargh newspaper detail an airstrike near the historic parliament building in Tehran, striking the bustling intersection of Vali-e-Asr and Jami streets—a hub of cultural landmarks and museums. No immediate casualties were confirmed.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed responsibility for a major drone and missile assault on a U.S. air base in Bahrain’s Sheikh Isa area. According to their statement, 20 drones and three missiles destroyed the base’s main command headquarters and ignited fuel tanks.
Casualty figures are mounting. The U.S.-based Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA) reports over 700 deaths in Iran since hostilities began on Saturday, rising to 742 by Monday evening—including 176 children. More than 900 civilians are injured, with 85 fatalities in the last 24 hours alone. HRANA is verifying hundreds of additional reports.
As the conflict intensifies, regional authorities are prioritizing public restraint to manage the crisis effectively.
