Bahrain is set to put 69 Shia clerics on trial, with a verdict expected on November 8. The clerics deny accusations of helping Iran's Revolutionary Guards build a network to overthrow the government. Human rights groups allege some were tortured and forced to confess. Bahrain has also stripped 69 citizens of Iranian heritage of their nationality. The trial comes as Bahrain prepares for potential war with Iran, increases pressure on its Shia population, and faces internal tension.
