The Bahraini Ministry of Interior has said that 15 people accused of having links to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) have been arrested.

The ministry said Wednesday investigations and security reports indicated that the suspects were responsible for carrying out incitement directives by attempting to influence citizens, particularly young people, with the aim of drawing them into activities criminalized by law.

It added that they exploited social infiltration methods to establish cells tasked with advancing the agendas of illegal entities.

The ministry said legal proceedings are underway against the detainees, while search and investigation operations continue to identify and take action against anyone found to be involved in the network or in activities that violate the law.

The ministry stressed that the movements of those involved had been under continuous monitoring and surveillance, saying that the recent measures were aimed at safeguarding the security and safety of all members of society.

It reiterated that it will continue to confront anyone seeking to undermine civil peace, spread discord, or incite division within Bahraini society.
