(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Bahrain regime forces used extreme brutality in dealing with citizens in more than 50 areas around Bahrain on the third anniversary of the start of the February 14 uprising. Troops were spread out in huge numbers, most of them mercenaries who have been brought in by the regime to suppress demonstrations and confiscate people’s rights and freedoms in expressing their opinions and demanding democratic transition in Bahrain.The people continue to persist exercising their right of expression, and they are faced by forces with brutal repression and use of weapons, including internationally banned weapons such as firearms (shotgun – fissile bullets ). They also face collective punishment and deliberately throwing large quantities of toxic and suffocating gases that have led to the suffocation and death of dozens of citizens previously.Police forces have flooded residential areas with toxic gasses and pursued citizens with their vehicles deliberately, opening fire on them to prevent them from protesting.Dozens of citizens were injured; some of them suffered serious injuries, with the forces directing their weapons at the citizens at close range in a clear and deliberate way of targeting their lives. This behaviour reflects the continuous disregard of citizens’ lives by the regime and its forcesBahrain has turned into a military barracks where troops have spread widely in all areas attacking mosques in both Duraz and Aali. Police forces directed their weapons at houses deliberately causing suffocation to the elderly and children inside houses.These protests come within the continuing movement demanding democracy until they reach a modern democratic state in which the people are the source of all powers.
