Chaos has hit Bahrain's Salmaniya Hospital, the country's largest public hospital, after Thursday 17 February's pre-dawn police raid on protesters in Lulu Roundabout.
From that time the hospital, which already faces overcrowding on a daily basis, was overwhelmed by the number of injured coming from Lulu Roundabout. Reports have poured on Twitter about doctors protesting the worsening conditions inside the hospital and the lack of ambulances bringing in the injured from the morning's raid.
