The protesters took to the streets in several villages near the capital, Manama, on Wednesday, blocking roads and setting fire to tires.
Anti-government protests continue in Bahrain despite the regime’s violent crackdown.
On June 24, the main Bahraini opposition group, al-Wefaq, said an anti-regime protester was injured during a demonstration in a village near Manama on June 22 and was in “critical condition.”
The opposition group stated that Ali Mohammed al-Muwali suffered a “broken skull, which was caused by a direct hit by a bullet” when he was “surrounding Sheikh Ali Salman,” the al-Wefaq leader.
Salman also sustained injuries from rubber bullets “in his shoulder and back” during the June 22 demonstration in the village of Bilad al-Qadeem, about four kilometers (2.5 miles) west of the capital.
The Bahraini demonstrators hold King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa responsible for the killing of protesters during the uprising that began in February 2011.
