(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Saudi-backed Bahraini regime forces have shot and injured an opposition activist in the village of Sitra, south of the capital Manama.
The attack took place during a peaceful protest late on Sunday when Bahraini soldiers targeted the activist, Sadiq Rabiee, with birdshots.
Reports say he is now in a stable condition.
The protest comes only a few days after the Bahraini regime announced it would seek legal action against the main opposition party, Al-Wefaq. Manama says the party is behind the protests in the tiny Persian Gulf kingdom.
Al-Wefaq, in a statement issued on Saturday, described the Bahraini Interior Ministry’s latest communiqué against the party as misleading and full of blatant lies.
