Al Daih Explained

Al Daih (Arabic: الديه) is a village on the north of Bahrain. It lies to the east of Budaiya, west of Al Manama. It was formerly known as Al Bida, Abu Al Zila, and now is called Al Daih, which is derived from the Persian word deh meaning "small village". The vast majority of Al Daih’s inhabitants are Shi’ite.

In March of 2014 three police in the village of Daih were killed by a bomb. Saraya al-Ashtar claimed responsibility.[1]
