Thursday, 11 February 2021_A Bahraini opposition protest movement has called for the formation of a coalition consisting of all political groups as well as the people of the Arab country to overthrow the country’s political system.

Ahead of Bahrain’s uprising anniversary, protest movement calls for overthrow of tyrannical Al Khalifah regimeIn a Wednesday statement ahead of the Bahraini uprising anniversary, the February 14 Youth Coalition called for unity to bring about “fundamental changes” in the country’s political system, describing such reforms as the most important and legitimate demand of the Bahraini people.

The February 14 Youth Coalition is an opposition protest movement named after the date of the beginning of a popular uprising against Bahrain’s ruling Al Khalifah regime, which began in 2011.

Since the beginning of the popular uprising, Bahraini people have held demonstrations on an almost daily basis in the Arab country, demanding that the ruling Al Khalifah family relinquish power.

However, the regime has brutally suppressed dissent, and has arrested, injured and killed thousands of people on the tiny island, which is located in the Persian Gulf. Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have also helped the Manama regime in its ruthless crackdown.
