Tehran's Friday prayers leader Ayatollah Sayyed Ahmad Khatami said the US and the Zionist regime were helping the Bahraini regime in suppressing the popular uprisings in the country.

"The recent days were the bloodiest days in Yemen and Bahrain and the crimes were engineered by the US and the Zionist regime and were committed by al-Saud and al-Khalifa," he said in his second Khutbah of the prayers.

"Bahrain has turned into a large jail with hard work. The statements of those who have been tortured further reveal the depth of atrocities of the al-Khalifa regime," Ayatollah Khatami added.

Tehran's Friday prayers leader also lashed out at the US approaches in the region and said, "The hate of the people of Iran and other countries against US and the Zionist regime stems from their inappropriate approaches."

Mr. Khatami in his first Khutbah pointed to the arrest of a group of CIA agents in Iran and called it a precious performance by the Iranian Intelligence Ministry.
