In early February 2023, Bahraini authorities seized a private endowment associated with the historic "Sheikh Saleh" Mosque in Tubli after demolishing it without legal justification, claiming it was "private property". Residents of the area were surprised to see bulldozers demolishing the historic endowment of the Shiite mosque and its surrounding fence, which dates back 500 years, located in the old Tubli area, also known as "Katakan".
