Bahraini woman killed in Saudi traffic accident

A Bahraini woman reportedly died in a traffic accident which occurred in Saudi Arabia. According to sources, the woman, Zainab Hussain, was travelling to the United Arab Emirates when the accident happened. Zainab’s father was with her at the time of an accident, sources added.

He is said to have sustained serious injuries. The funeral will be held in the Kingdom, sources said. Two weeks ago, two Bahrainis died after suffering serious injuries in a traffic accident in Saudi Arabia. Among other accident cases in the past few weeks, a 58-year-old Bahraini was killed in Mina Salman.

He was reportedly riding a bicycle when the accident happened. “A bicycle rider died in a traffic accident on Shaikh Jaber Al Sabah Street towards Manama in Mina Salman Area, the concerned authorities on the scene,” the Interior Ministry had stated. The Ministry last Tuesday had confirmed that a traffic accident on Al Fateh Highway near Marina beach led to the death of a 22-year-old man, reportedly an Arab national.
