MANAMA (MEMO) – Three hundred official and private figures have participated in a Zionist celebration in the Bahraini capital, on the occasion of the occupation of Palestine, considered by Zionists as “Independence Day”.
It is the first celebration by Zionists of this occasion in a Persian Gulf country amid profound Palestinian anger and resentment.
Israel’s Kan channel reported that it was the first time that the occupying regime’s embassy in Manama held a party marking the 74th anniversary of the so-called Independence Day, attended by over 300 guests representing all branches of regime and private sectors in Bahrain.
The regime’s ministry of foreign affairs published photos and videos on Twitter of a reception held by the regime’s embassy in the Bahraini capital, Manama, to celebrate the occasion.
The celebration held in Bahrain was met with grave Palestinian discontent, as Palestinians expressed their astonishment at a celebration held in a Persian Gulf state on the occasion of the Palestinian Nakba.
What the Zionists call Independence Day, and consider a “national day”, is the Nakba Day for Palestinians, marking the result of the displacement that Palestinians have suffered at the hands of the occupation regime.
