His Majesty King Hamad, the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, yesterday visited the injured who are receiving medical care following the recent hostile Iranian attacks.
He was accompanied by His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Crown Prince, Deputy Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces and Prime Minister.
Upon arrival, His Majesty was received by Bahrain Defence Force (BDF) Commander-in-Chief Field Marshal Shaikh Khalifa bin Ahmed Al Khalifa and Royal Medical Services Commander Brigadier Doctor Shaikh Fahad bin Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa.
