Censorship in Bahrain

The Kingdom of Bahrain is deemed ‘Not Free’ in terms of Net Freedom and Press Freedom by Freedom House.[1] The 2016 World Press Freedom Index by Reporters Without Borders ranked Bahrain 162nd out of 180 countries.[2]

Bahrain is a constitutional monarchy led by the Khalifa royal family. Criticized by numerous organizations for its censorship of information and repression of its people, it has become notorious for jailing journalists.
