National unity and societal cohesion remain Bahrain’s strongest defense in the face of growing regional challenges, according to Jalila Alawi Al-Sayed, Chair of the Services Committee in the House of Representatives. She stated that the region is witnessing rapid political and military developments, which require a solid and unified internal front. The only way to respond to these challenges, she stressed, is through wisdom, awareness, and prioritizing unity above all else.
Al-Sayed explained that the current period is historically significant. She said it demands all Bahrainis focus on the supreme national interest. Citizens must put the country first, not individual or partisan concerns. She also pointed to Bahrain’s firm and principled stance on the recent Israeli aggression against Iran. She referenced the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ official statement that condemned the attack and warned of its risks.
The statement condemned the strike and warned of its dangerous impact on the security and stability of the region. Al-Sayed highlighted that Bahrain’s position aligns with international law and reflects its rejection of escalation and violence. She called on citizens to support the country’s approach and remain committed to the values that have long preserved Bahrain’s peace and security. In her remarks, she underlined the importance of maintaining national unity and societal cohesion during these critical times.
Al-Sayed also stressed the key role of media, especially social media, in shaping public awareness. She urged media users to act responsibly and avoid spreading rumors or misinformation, which could harm the country’s unity. She encouraged citizens to hold on to a unified identity, stay clear of division, and follow official instructions in any possible emergency.
Al-Sayed concluded by praying for Bahrain’s safety and asking for wisdom and calm during this sensitive period. She also hoped for lasting peace across the region and urged citizens to remain hopeful, patient, and informed. Ultimately, she said, Bahrain’s future depends on its people’s continued commitment to national unity and societal cohesion.
