Good morning Bahrain, this is Newzak. We bring you local news every morning at 7AM.

Homes Delivered
Bahrain has allocated 531 homes in Phase Two of Sitra Housing City as part of its national housing programme. The initiative follows directives from King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and is being implemented under the plans of Crown Prince and Prime Minister Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa.Keys are now being handed over to beneficiaries, with the project moving forward as planned to meet housing demand and strengthen sustainable communities.

Cyber Attacks
Cybersecurity experts have raised the alarm after more than 50 people in Bahrain fell victim to a sophisticated online scam. Fraudsters are posing as ministry officials, using social media ads to redirect users to fake pages that lock their browsers and demand a BD150 “penalty fee” to restore access. This comes as cyberattacks across Bahrain and the region have surged by 800% in just one month, with experts warning of increasingly frequent and sophisticated digital threats.

Al Hakawati
The Kingdom of Bahrain bid a heartfelt farewell to Mohammed Saleh, the beloved “Al Hakawati,” who turned his battle with brain cancer into a source of inspiration. Diagnosed eight years ago, he refused to let illness define him, instead dressing in traditional costume and sharing timeless stories of values and imagination with children across the nation.

Youth Champs
Saar Athletic Club secured the Bahraini Table Football Youth League title for the 2025–2026 season, earning recognition from the federation under the leadership of H.E. Sheikh Hayat Bint Abdul Aziz Al Khalifa.

Back to School
Across Bahrain, classrooms are once again filled with laughter and learning as nurseries and kindergartens reopen. Children are reconnecting with friends, play, and hands-on experiences, marking a warm and welcome return to everyday life for families and educators.

The camel wishes you a good morning!
