A Nigerian man living in Bahrain has taken to social media to express fear and panic as tensions in the Middle East reportedly triggered missile attack alerts in the region.
In an emotional video shared online, the man described the terrifying atmosphere as sirens sounded and residents were warned to remain alert. According to him, the situation has left many foreigners and locals anxious about their safety.
“We can hear loud sounds and everyone is scared. Please pray for us,” he said in the video, visibly shaken as he explained that people around him were rushing indoors and monitoring updates closely.
The Nigerian resident said the uncertainty has made it difficult to stay calm, especially with reports of missiles and regional conflicts dominating the news.
He also appealed to family members and friends back home not to panic but to keep them in their prayers, adding that many Nigerians working in the country are hoping the situation does not escalate further.
The video has since gone viral online, drawing reactions from concerned viewers who flooded the comment sections with prayers and messages of support.
Many Nigerians also used the moment to highlight the challenges faced by citizens living abroad in regions where geopolitical tensions can suddenly put lives at risk.
For now, residents in Bahrain continue to monitor the situation closely, hoping that the tensions will ease and that peace will return before the fears turn into a full-scale crisis.
