Iranian Women Protest at Suppression of Bahraini People
TEHRAN, April 30 (FNA)- A large number of Iranian women took to the streets of Tehran and other cities across the country on Friday to voice their anger at the brutal suppression of peaceful protests in Bahrain. During the massive rallies held after the Friday Prayers ceremonies across the country, demonstrators expressed their frustration with the crimes committed against the Bahrainis by the Al Khalifa and Al Saud regimes.
Iranians from all walks of life have staged numerous rallies during the last few weeks to shout their support for the popular uprisings in the Middle-East and North Africa and to condemn suppression of peaceful protests by dictatorial regimes in the region.
Demonstrators in Bahrain have been demanding constitutional reforms as well as an end to the 230-year-old monarchy, with hundreds camping out peacefully in the capital's Pearl Square since February 14th.
Bahraini security forces have been brutally suppressing anti-government protesters. So far, at least 40 people have been killed, almost 100 have gone missing and about 1,000 others have been injured.
The violence against protesters escalated when Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Qatar dispatched their armed forces to the country to help Manama crack down on peaceful protesters.
