As voters streamed to polling stations across Bahrain for parliamentary and municipal elections, the main Shia opposition is expressing its dissatisfaction with the political situation by staging a boycott.
Bahrain on Saturday headed to the polls for the first time since the 2011 uprising that pitted the country’s Shia majority against the Sunni rulers, a simmering conflict that continues to flicker to life today with periodic outbursts of protests and violence.
