The authorities blocked Al-Khawaja mosque in Manama where Shiites used to perform their prayers each year, which led the citizens to perform their prayers on Imam Al-Hussein Street and side streets.
Preachers stressed that the people will continue demanding their legitimate rights, adding that no one can defeat Bahrainis.
