March 15, 2012: Large numbers of protestors demonstrated in many areas in Bahrain, security forces fired tear gas, stun grenades and rubber bullets at protesters, who were marking the first anniversary of the deployment of a Saudi-led military force in Bahrain, leading to a number of serious injuries among protestors, who were treated at homes by volunteers because they are unable to seek treatment in neither public nor private hospitals for the fear of interrogation and arrest.
