Manama: Bahrain is mulling the establishment of a war college that specialises in advanced military science.

King Hamad Bin Eisa Al Khalifa on Thursday evening ordered the study for setting up the institution that will be affiliated with the Bahrain Defence Force, prepare the BDF and National Guard officers and boost mobilisation standards.

"We are keen on Bahrain being the country of law and institutions and on addressing all anomalies to ensure full compliance with the law," King Hamad said.

"We will take into consideration the recommendations of all legitimate competent institutions so that decisions are not individualistic."
