Bahraini authorities deployed the paramilitary National Guard on Saturday in a move to further clamp down on public protest, reports AP.
Last month, the authorities banned all protests and public gatherings.
In a statement on Saturday, the government said the National Guard would patrol "strategic locations" where arson attacks and violent clashes have taken place.
Two days ago, the government revoked the citizenship of 31 human rights activists stating that they had "undermined state security".
