Following the uproar caused by the death of the Bahraini Abdol Rahman Adel Hasan Hamad (19 years old) who was fighting for Al-Nusra Front in Syria, social networks have circulated news about the death of Bahrainis killed in Syria as they were fighting for Al-Nusra front.

Abdol Aziz al-Othman, 17 years, and Abdol Rahman al-Othman, 21 years, from Bahraini town of Aarad, were killed in last October in Syria during the army clashes with the militant groups.

Social networks circulated the news and clarified that the two killed belong to the Bahraini Defense forces.

A photo posted on social networks showed Abdol Aziz al-Othman wearing the Bahraini Defense forces uniform standing by gunmen in Syria.

As was the case when Bahraini former deputies met the opposition militants in Syria, the Bahraini regime still refuses to comment on the news, although Al-Nusra Front has been blacklisted Thursday by the United Nations as a terrorist group.

Syria was hit by a violent unrest since mid-March 2011, where the Syrian government accuses foreign actors of orchestrating the conflict, by supporting the militant opposition groups with arms and money.
