The King Fahd Causeway, an important bridge that connects Saudi Arabia to Bahrain, reopened on Tuesday morning, April 7, 2026, after being closed for several hours due to potential threats from Iran. The King Fahd Causeway Authority shared this update on X, confirming that the only road link between Bahrain and the Arabian Peninsula is now open again. Bahrain’s airport has remained shut for weeks due to the Iranian attacks. The closure lasted for hours following a ballistic missile strike from Iran that targeted Saudi Arabia and possibly caused harm to its energy facilities. The kingdom has not provided details about the extent of the damage from this incident.
