Manama – The Qatari fencing team concluded their campaign at the West Asian Junior and Youth Fencing Championship in Bahrain with a remarkable tally of 12 medals , six gold, two silver, and four bronze ,  underlining their growing strength on the regional stage.

On the final day of competition, Qatar added three more medals, including two gold and a silver in the team events.
