      "question": "What is the country code for Bahrain?",

    },
    {
      "question": "Which prefixes are mobile numbers in Bahrain?",
      "answer": "Mobile numbers start with 3 or 6 in national form; the mobile regular expression on this page gives the exact ranges (example: 3600 1234). The carrier table shows which prefix blocks were allocated to which operator."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can a mobile number in Bahrain be ported to another carrier?",
      "answer": "Yes. Bahrain has mobile number portability, so a prefix tells you the carrier a number was originally allocated to, not necessarily the one serving it today. Only a live carrier lookup (an HLR or MNP query) answers that."
