Bahrainis urged to participate in self-determination right rally

Bahrain’s February 14 Youth Coalition, a major opposition group, urged the people of the country to massively take part in a rally dubbed “right to self-determination 2018”.

Hawzah News Agency (Manama, Bahrain) - According to Manama Post website, it called on Bahrainis to attend the rally on Thursday, May 31.

The popular movement said the event is part of the people’s revolution that aims to end the rule of the current regime and give the people the right to self-determination.

The rally is slated to be held in Sitra Town near the capital Manama.

Bahrain, a close ally of the US in the Persian Gulf region, has been witnessing almost daily protests against the ruling Al Khalifa dynasty since early 2011, with Manama using heavy-handed measures in an attempt to crush the demonstrations.

Scores of Bahrainis have been killed and hundreds of others injured and arrested in the ongoing crackdown on the peaceful demonstrations.

End.
