27 Shia'a mosques have been demolished by security forces in Bahrain. Some of these mosques have important historical and religious context.
This is a video someone put together documenting the demolitions and some of the vandalizing acts against other religious Shia'a institutions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzKGT8HtKkM.
More than 100 "Mudhayefat" (stands that are built usually for distribution of food and drink during Shia'a religious events) have also been taken down.

I am alarmed that many governments around the world continue to stay silent about the massive human rights violations taking place in Bahrain. It is especially alarming to see those considered allies to Bahrain to continue to say nothing to their ally which is terrorizing its own people on a daily basis, and with 800+ detainees under high risk of torture. I urge all of you to do what you can to pressure your governments to take a stronger stand on the violations taking place in Bahrain. Silence about the violations in Bahrain will also give a green light to other oppressive regimes as to how far they can go in suppressing protests in their countries before international community will take a strong stand.
