Bahrainis protesting against unemployment clashed with police in the capital Manama late on Wednesday, regional media reported. Protesters threw stones and petrol bombs, setting fire to two police cars, after officers moved in to disperse them, Bahrain's official BNA news agency reported. It said the demonstration was unauthorised.
The protest was the latest in a series against unemployment in Bahrain, the least wealthy of Gulf Arab oil producers with a history of political tension. At least 15 protesters were injured in clashes with police during a demonstration in July.
