On Friday, thousands paid their respects to the people who died in the Thursday 17 February, 2011, pre-dawn raid [2] at Lulu Roundabout in the Bahrain capital Manama.
The raid led to the death of four men: Mahmood Ahmed Makki (21), Ali Khudhair (58), Ahmed Al-Mo'men (22) from Sitra, and Isa Abdulhasan (61) from Karzakan. Mourners followed funeral processions in Daih, Karzakan and Sitra on Friday morning.

After Friday prayers at Al-Fateh Mosque, thousands of citizens and members of the Indian and Pakistani communities participated in a pro-government pro-King march despite rumours that the march would be canceled.

In another unfortunate turn of events, protesters heading towards Lulu Roundabout were shot [18] by military forces and the injured were carried to nearby Salmaniya Hospital which has become the focal point of protesting after the Lulu Roundabout raids.
