Bahrain Mirror (Exclusive): Despite the complete crackdown on the popular protests in Bahrain, Bahrainis took to the streets on Quds Day commemorated by Arab and Muslim peoples on the last Friday of Ramadan. Several protests were staged in Bahrain since Friday eve and were met with force as Bahraini regime forces used toxic gases as usual to confront them.

Quds Day comes different this year as people have been feeling increasingly ashamed due to the stances taken by their leaders and governments that have rushed to publicly normalize their relations with the Israeli occupying regime, even prasing it as their friend, and shamefully yielding to it since it's the gate to Washington's approval and content.

Bahraini people this year suffer a special pain, perhaps more than other peoples of the region. When other countries were practicing this shame in dark closed rooms, Bahrain this year started to publicly work towards normalization. Bahrain's leaders have made the country an arena for dirty missions where betrayal plots and projects are implemented. That's how Riyadh and Abu Dhabi wanted it.

Bahrainis took to the streets not only to commemorate Quds Day, but to denounce the deal of the century that aims at selling Al-Quds, stressing that this deal is to be passed from Bahrain through the so-called economic workshop for the deal of the century to be held this June. Bahrainis insisted on announcing their opposition to this shameful deal despite the oppression they face with every protest they stage.

Calls were made to stage several protests on Friday (May 31, 2019) in different areas across the island kingdom. Protests were held in four rounds during their fast in very hot weather:

First round at dawn: protests in Al-Milikya and A'ali

Second round at noon: protests in Sar, Al-Qidam and Abu Saiba

Third round in the afternoon: protests in Karana and Al-Musalla

Fourth round at night: protests in Al-Daih and Al-Muqashaa

The following are photos of some of the protests staged on Friday night in different areas in Manama, Al-Malikiya and Karzakan.
