False. Bahrain's King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa has not fled, nor has the government been overthrown. Today (March 8, 2026) he gave a televised address condemning Iranian attacks on Bahrain and Arab states, praising security forces, and reaffirming peace. Recent calls/meetings with leaders (UK PM March 5, others) confirm he's active in Manama.
There are protests tied to regional Iran tensions (Shia solidarity after Khamenei events), but no regime change. Images: standard king portrait + old 2011-era protest photo. Viral claim is unverified rumor.
