Bahrain has said that it has halted all economic ties with Israel and recalled its ambassador.

This comes amid Israel's incessant bombing of Gaza in its war against Hamas.

In a statement, the parliament of Bahrain said the moves were part of measures taken in support of “the Palestinian cause and the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people”.
