I've found these two articles useful primers for beginning to understand what's happening in Libya and Bahrain right now.

What's Happening in Libya: Explained

What's Happening in Bahrain: Explained

I also found this news round-up on tumblr. It's current as of yesterday.

If you're looking for ways to help, Avaaz.org is currently working to black out proof the protests. They're a really good social justice organization in general, so you may want to sign up for their newsletter to stay updated on their work.

Both Al Jazeera and Jadaliyya are offering coverage of the protests. This article on Libya is being continuously updated, it's current as of two hours ago.

If you know of other organizations offering coverage or aid please feel free to contribute links in the comments. I'll edit this post to add anything else in.

EDIT: Online petition to the UN to send help to Libya.
