French President Emmanual Macron has arrived in Bahrain as part of his three-day tour of the Gulf. He is due to meet Bahrain's King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa.

He will be arriving in Qatar later on Tuesday. He has already visited Kuwait and the UAE. Al Jazeera’s Malik Traina reports. Subscribe to our channel: bit.ly
