Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) denounced Monday the Bahraini regime over its reception of Israeli occupation Prime Minister Naftali Bennett in Manama.

PIJ saw that "normalization and receiving Zionist officials only encourages them to carry out more aggression against our people and on our land."

In a statement, the movement also called on the "brotherly Bahraini people and all the peoples of the world to continue rejecting normalization."

The Palestine Freedom Movement saw that the Bahraini regime receiving Bennett, "The criminal, in light of continued aggressions and escalations against our people, prisoners, land, and especially Al-Quds, is a stab in the back for our people, and a reward for the [Israeli occupation's] fascist crimes."

The Bahraini regime is bringing nothing but shame and woe to itself, as it became a hotbed for the Mossad that is using its relationship with Manama to ratify its existence and extend its powers, the movement also said.

It further called on the Bahraini people, whose stances became evident through their anti-normalization activism, to carry on with their movement against their regime.

The Deputy Secretary-General of the Bahraini Al-Wefaq Society, Sheikh Hussein Al-Daihi, affirmed the rejection of Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett's meeting with King Hamad bin Isa of Bahrain.

Israeli occupation prime minister had visited Bahrain in early February as part of a visit during which the two parties signed a defense deal.
