Day Three

Day Three and the protests continue. Yesterday one protester was killed by the riot police. Today was the funeral. At the funeral procession, two more people were killed bringing the total deaths to three.

We thought the protests were over, but it seems they are starting afresh. Here are some photographs showing the most recent action. People are gathering at the iconic Pearl Roundabout in the heart of Manama to protest. Apparently, they are bringing prayer mats, sleeping bags, food, and water, indicating they will not be leaving soon. So far there has only been a gathering; no violence has broken out.
