A "terrorist blast" in a village in Bahrain killed a policeman on Friday, the country's interior ministry said.
"One policeman killed in the terrorist blast in Karana village," it said on its Twitter account, giving no further details.

Since then there have been sporadic protests and a growing number of bomb attacks.
