3 more protesters die in Iraq clashes
Three anti-government protesters were killed in clashes with security forces on bridges across the Tigris in the Iraqi capital yesterday, a medical source said. More than 340 people have died and thousands have been wounded since rallies against widespread graft and unemployment erupted in Baghdad and the mostly-Shia south last month. Two of them were shot dead and the third died from trauma injuries from a tear gas canister. Another 30 protesters were wounded.
