In Bahrain, Abu Saiba riot police were using molotov weapons against the anti-government protesters.

Bahrain, a gulf country ruled by Sunni Dynasty, was shaken in February of 2013 by the Shia'a majority demanding democracy. The police used dangerous attacks against the anti-government protesters.

Clashes occurred between riot police and protestors as a government crackdown on the anti-regime demonstrations was put into effect in several villages throughout the country, including Abu-Saibah. Riot police fired tear gas and according to a human rights group in Bahrain, more than 100 people have been injured so far. The Bahraini uprising began in mid-February 2011. This comes in front of the planned countrywide anti-regime protest on August 14, organized by Bahrain's "Tamorrod" movement. Abu Saiba, Bahrain, July 21, 2013.
