<p>
	<em>Washington, DC</em> &ndash;The United States Government must break its silence on Bahrain and condemn today&rsquo;s ongoing violent attacks on peaceful protestors, said Human Rights First.</p>
<p>
	According to the organization, reports of demonstrators being attacked by riot police using tear gas and birdshot are coming in from many parts of the country. Information from on the ground in Bahrain has confirmed that pro-democracy protestors are being attacked by the police in locations all over the country and, since hospitals and medical facilities remain under military control, injured protestors are forced to seek treatment in makeshift centers or private homes. They fear arrest and torture if they go to the hospital.</p>
