Bahraini regime forces have attacked Shia mourners commemorating the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hussein, peace be upon him, the third Imam.

 

Security forces targeted the mourners in several villages across the country on Saturday.

They destroyed and removed all banners, flags and black cloths commemorating the sorrowful anniversary.
