TOPSHOTS A Bahraini protester runs for cover from tear gas during a confrontation with police after a demonstration against the arrest of Sheikh Ali Salman, head of the Shiite opposition movement Al-Wefaq, in Salman's home village of Bilad al-Qadeem, on the outskirts of the capital Manama on January 8, 2015. The December 28 arrest of Salman, who heads the influential Al-Wefaq bloc, has prompted calls by the United States and Shiite-dominated Iran for his release as well as clashes between police and protesters in the Sunni-ruled kingdom.
