Such check points which have been widely set lately, are a clear evidence of the security crackdown on rise, and that is being used to confront the protests and the demands for a democratic transition.



Many areas witnessed night protests including: Juffair, Sanabis, South Sehla, Sitra, Al-Daih, Mussala,Iskan Jid hafs, Dimistan, Dar-Kulaib, Bani-Jamra, Nuwaidrat, Ma'ameer, Nu'aim, Al-Qurraya, Al-Malkya and Arad.
