By: Ali Al-Qadumi

MANAMA, Bahrain: Saudi-backed Bahraini forces while intensifying their crackdown on anti-regime protesters have shamelessly demolished on Monday April 18 two more mosques and husseiniyahs and also torched holy objects such as the copies of Quran.

According to authentic reports at least eight mosques, husseiniyahs and shrines namely: Masjid Imam As-Sadiq (a.s.) in Salmabad region, masjid Rasoul Al-Adham (s) in Karzakan city, masjid al-Barbaghi in A'ali region, maqam Qadam Al-Mahdi (a.t.f.) in Mahuz village, masjid and husseiniyah Imam Al-Jawad (a.s) and masjid Um al-Banin (a.s.) in Hamad town, masjid Imam Hassan Al-Askary in Manama and masjid Fadak oz-Zahra (a.s.) in Hamad Town, were destroyed completely.

Meanwhile, Al-Wafaq the main Shia party has strongly condemned aggression against places of worship i.e. mosques, husseiniyahs and shrines terming it an open contradiction to human and religious values ad teachings.

On Monday, the forces smashed Imam As-Sadiq (a.s.) Masjid in Salmabad region and Rasoul Al-Adham (s) in Karzakan city.

On Friday and Sunday April 15 and 17, they destroyed Masjid al-Barbaghi, Al-Watiyya Masjid which was known as Qadam al-Mahdi (a.t.f.) in Mahuz village, masjid and husseiniyah Imam Al-Jawad (a.s) and Um al-Banin (a.s.) Masjid in Hamad town, and Imam Hassan Al-Askary Masjid in Manama. Fadak oz-Zahra (a.s.) Masjid in Hamad was razed on 14 April.

Meanwhile, Saudi King Abdullah on Tuesday vowed full Manama support for what he called Bahrain's security and stability.

"The security of Bahrain and Saudi Arabia is indivisible - being two bodies with one soul," the Saudi monarch said.
