About 1,000 protesters were standing in the road to block the entrance to the industrial area of the coastal town of Sohar, which includes a port, refinery and aluminium factory.
Hundreds more were protesting at a main roundabout, angry after police opened fire on Sunday at stone-throwing protesters demanding political reforms, jobs and better pay. Protesters later burned the town's police station and two state offices.
