Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman arrived in Manama on Thursday, where he was met by Bahrain's King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa after concluding talks in Doha with Qatar’s Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamed al-Thani, part of a tour of Gulf states by the Saudi prince, ahead of a Gulf summit later this month.

Earlier on Thursday, the Saudi-Bahraini Coordination Council held a meeting to discuss a number of files of common interest between the two countries, and enhancing cooperation in the political, economic and military fields.
