Bahrain: Anti-government protester dodges tear gas canisters whilst filming

  • comments

This video shows an anti-government protester dodging several gas canisters in Sitra, whilst filming clashes between youths and police forces. At 00:11, a protester is seen clapping is hand and shouting in an attempt to attract the attention of police forces, who then start firing a series of tear gas canisters towards him.

The cameraman, who is filming the scene, moves to the right to dodge at least 4 tear gas canisters. Clashes between youths and Bahraini security forces happen almost every day in the tiny oil-rich kingdom, which has been wracked by unrest since pro-democracy demonstrations began in February 2011.

More demonstrations are expected to take place next week as anti-government protesters will be celebrating the second anniversary of the Bahraini revolution.
