Meanwhile, thousands of Bahrainis marched in the village of Diraz outside Manama in support of al-Wefaq's decision to withdraw from the government-led national reform talks earlier this week.

Saudi-backed Bahraini forces have attacked anti-government protesters in some villages injuring several unarmed people.

Some witnesses say an elderly woman died from asphyxia after regime forces fired teargas to break up a protest rally in the village of Bani Jamra near Manama on Friday but it does not confirmed yet.

Two of the injured are reported to be in critical condition.

Hundreds of anti-government protesters took to the streets across Bahrain following the Friday Prayers, demanding an end to the rule of Al Khalifa dynasty.

The demonstrators also condemned the Saudi occupation of their country and called for the immediate withdrawal of KSA troops from Bahrain.

Meanwhile, thousands of Bahrainis marched in the village of Diraz outside Manama in support of al-Wefaq's decision to withdraw from the government-led national reform talks earlier this week.

Leaders of al-Wefaq, Bahrain's influential opposition bloc, say they pulled out of talks after their views and demands were ignored and because the talks were dominated by pro-government representatives.

"Our demands remain the same. An elected government, elected parliament, one vote for each citizen and independent judiciary," al-Wefaq leader Sheikh Ali Salman told supporters on Friday.
