Soldiers walk on a street near the Globe roundabout during Friday prayers in the northern industrial town of Sohar, Oman April 8, 2011. Heavy security prevented fresh protests after Friday prayers in the Omani city of Sohar, where protesters camped out for over a month before security forces moved them out last week. Checkpoints were set up across the northeastern industrial city with dozens of armoured vehicles blocking access to protest areas. Residents' names were checked against a list and access to mosques was restricted, while a helicopter flew overhead, witnesses said. REUTERS/Jumana El-Heloueh (OMAN - Tags: CIVIL UNREST POLITICS)
