Three Siblings Severely Injured in Fatal Saar Crash: Condition Updates Released

An outpouring of sympathy continues across Bahrain in the wake of a tragic traffic accident that claimed the lives of a young couple and left their three children with serious injuries. The horrific incident occurred days ago on Saar’s internal road, when a speeding vehicle collided head-on with the family’s car in a devastating crash.

Medical sources informed Al Ayam that 12-year-old Aya Ahmed, one of the children involved, underwent a complex surgical procedure to reinforce her bones with metal rods extending from her pelvis to her thigh. Aya has regained consciousness and is now responsive to medical staff and those around her. Doctors have described her condition as “stable,” with close monitoring continuing.

Her 7-year-old brother, Abdulaziz Ahmed, remains in a highly critical condition. He is suffering from severe head trauma and multiple fractures and is currently under intensive observation in the ICU. Medical professionals have described his condition as “in God’s hands.”

Their older brother, 10-year-old Yousif Ahmed, initially responded well to emergency surgery after sustaining internal bleeding in the kidneys and abdominal area. Although he briefly regained consciousness, doctors later discovered a skull fracture that required him to be sedated again and placed back under intensive care.

The collision, which occurred on the road leading to Saar Mall, resulted in the immediate deaths of both parents at the scene. Since the news broke, the Bahraini community has been gripped by grief and rallied in solidarity with the surviving children.

In a heartfelt gesture of support, Karranah Primary Girls School and Jaber bin Hayyan Primary Boys School—where Aya and her brothers are students—announced the cancellation of graduation celebrations. The decision was made to honor the children and express solidarity with the grieving family, highlighting the deep sense of unity and compassion that characterizes Bahraini society.
