The sale of a Bahraini island to Israeli company Himnota triggered nationwide outrage in Bahrain on Monday, when it was revealed by an Israeli news outlet that the company had bought the island for a mere $21.5 million in an auction.

The news was initially announced by "TV7 Israel News" and was erased a short while after it was broadcasted. Several Arab-speaking accounts managed to get ahold of the news before it was erased.

Himnota is an Israeli private company widely known for illegally registering itself as the land owner of Palestinian territories. It is a subsidiary of the ultra-right Jewish National Fund (JNF).

According to the Israeli news channel, the purchased island is reported to cover an area of 9,553 square meters and would be suitable for the construction of skyscrapers and residential projects.

It could also be used to evacuate Israelis in the event of war, sources stated.

One of the company's representatives, named Avery Shnayer, said that friendly talks were being held with Bahrain for the peaceful transfer of the island's sovereignty to "Israel."

Several Bahraini activists have raised the alarm over the purchase, warning of a prelude to the occupation of another Arab country.

Another renowned human rights activist, Bahraini lawmaker Jawad Fairooz, described the report as "a very dangerous and worrying signal."

The news also comes in light of a recent international military conference that was held in Bahrain under the auspices of the US Central Command (CENTCOM), in which Israeli military chief Herzi Halevi took part.

Despite the condemnation of several activists over the move, the Bahraini regime continues to pursue a policy of normalization with "Israel", which officially began in September 2020, with a US-brokered normalization agreement.
