Permalink Doctor speaks of 'hundreds of casualties' in Bahrain - VIDEO

Hundreds of people have been injured in clashes in Bahrain, according to a doctor who spoke to the BBC by phone from the Gulf state. He also said that soldiers and police had seized ambulances and appeared to be firing on anyone in their path, but that it was impossible to identify where those responsible for the violence were from. On Monday troops from neighbouring Gulf states were sent to Bahrain to help deal with continuing anti-government protests. The king of Bahrain has also declared a three-month state of emergency. To protect his identity the doctor is named only as 'Abdul'.

PressTV: US liable for Saudi invasion of Bahrain - The Iranian Parliament (Majlis) Speaker Ali Larijani says the US should be answerable for its 'traceable involvement' in the violent suppression of protests in the Middle East, North Africa and the invasion of Bahrain. Larijani pointed to the recent visit by US Defense Secretary Robert Gates to the Bahraini capital city, Manama, and said, “Following the visit, certain countries in the Persian Gulf announced that sending troops to Bahrain is aimed at supporting the ruling government in the country.” “It is very clear that such an aggressive move has been carried out in support of the United States during the defense secretary's trip. Regional nations have the right to declare that Washington is responsible for any violence and killing,” ISNA quoted Larijani as saying.
