Bahrain Mirror (Exclusive): Bahrain witnessed mass rallies on Friday (October 13, 2017) that were held in various areas across the country. Protesters condemned the Bahraini regime's normalization of relations with Israel and the arrests of children launched by the security authorities.
Demonstrators chanted anti-regime slogans and demanded putting an end to the security forces' continued arrests of children as well as the ruling Al-Khalifa family's monopoly over power.
Activists reported marches and protests in Barbar, Karbabad, Adhari, Bani Jamra, Abukawa, Al-Dair, Sitra, Shaherkan, Karana, Nuwaidrat and Karzakan, denouncing Bahrain's steps toward normalizing relations with Israel.
Al-Maqsha, Nabih Saleh, Al-Markh, Al-Malikiya and Karzakan also witnessed marches condemning the Bahraini authorities' detention of children for political reasons, demanding their immediate release.
Protestors blocked roads in Nuwaidrat, Adhari, Bani Jamra and Karana by setting tires ablaze, while clashes erupted between security forces and protestors in Abu Saiba, Shakhoura, Sitra and Karzakan, where government troops used toxic teargas and shotgun pellets against demonstrators.
