HRW: Bahrain continues to arrest children for their solidarity with Palestine

Niku Jafarnia, a researcher in the Middle East and Africa division at Human Rights Watch, confirmed that Bahrain continues to violate human rights, especially those of children.

Jafarnia said in a post on the X platform that “Bahrain continues to arrest children,” noting that “at least 29 children remain in detention, because of their participation in pro-Palestine activism since October 7.”

Jafarnia further pointed out that “many have been denied family visits.”
