Name given by protesters in Bahrain to a day in the Arab Spring

The Day of Rage is the name given by protesters in Bahrain to 14 February 2011, the first day of the national uprising as part of the Arab Spring.

They appealed to the Bahraini people "to take to the streets on Monday 14 February in a peaceful and orderly manner".
