Tear gas used to clear Bahrain protesters
Riot police in Bahrain fired tear gas to disperse several hundred protesters who took to the streets today to demand the government’s resignation after a report uncovered torture and other abuses against detainees.
The protesters carried the red and white Bahraini flag as they marched for nearly four miles (six kilometres) along a road running through Shiite neighbourhoods in a northern district of the island kingdom.
