Bahrain opposition: Protester killed in clashes

None

A Bahrain opposition party and authorities say a 17-year-old has been killed in clashes with security forces. The death could bring fresh protests by Shiite-led groups seeking a greater political voice in the Sunni-ruled Gulf kingdom.

 

More than 50 people have died, including protesters and police, in almost 20 months of near-nonstop unrest in the strategic island nation, which is home to the US Navy's 5th Fleet. (AP)
