Hawzah News Agency (Qom, Iran) - Part of the statement which was issued on Monday, Dcemeber ۲۶ reads:

"In yet another inhumane action, Bahraini forces recently attacked Shaykh Isa Qasim’s house in Diraz hoping to arrest the senior Shia cleric; the revolutionary Bahraini Shiites were present at the scene and stood up against the forces, neutralizing Al Khalifah’s oppressive and illegal plot to revoke Shaykh Qasim’s citizenship.

Such assault on the part of the regime once again proved the heavy crackdown on Bahraini citizens and the injustice imposed by Al Khalifah rulers. It’s certain that Bahrainis’ call for justice and freedom will eventually put an end to the dark era of the Al Khalifah regime and their onoing inhumane oppressions in Bahrain."
