Bahrain activists hold Day of Rage

Source: Al Jazeera English

Small-scale clashes have been reported from parts of Bahrain amid heightened security over planned protests by the kingdom's Shia Muslim majority.

Protesters had called for a Day of Rage to be observed on Monday, inspired by anti-government uprisings in Egypt and Tunisia.

Helicopters circled over the capital Manama, where protesters were expected to gather in the afternoon, and there was greater police presence in Shia villages.

At least 14 people were injured in clashes overnight and on Monday, news agencies reported.
