AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The images are difficult to look at but the reality of life for many people in Bahrain is still one of imprisonment and uncertainty. With a few days shy of the 11-year anniversary of the uprising in Manama and surrounding districts, activists in the UK are marking the occasion.
One by one the speakers took the podium, erected on the pavement outside the Bahraini embassy in London with a message of defiance and resistance. In the decade-plus since the revolution, Manama has even managed to export some of its violence.
Bahrain has featured on UK parliamentary agendas, been the subject of official inquiries with the British government but still no progress as activists seek a peaceful path to lasting reforms.
Activists argue the continuing atrocities committed against the Bahraini people can only happen with the consent of the international community and are urging fresh action, not just words.
After more than a decade of broken promises, false dawns, imprisonment, intimidation, torture and even death, the brave freedom fighters for Bahrain have pledged to fight on to give Bahrain and its people the justice they are owed.
