Tunisia forces fire in air to disperse rally
None
Tunisian security forces fired into the air on Sunday as tens of thousands of demonstrators gathered downtown to call for the replacement of the interim government, a Reuters witness said.
It was the second straight day of mass protests in the North African country's capital despite a government ban on rallies after a popular uprising last month forced President Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali to flee. Following weeks of relative calm, as many as 30,000 marchers gathered in front of the prime minister's building shouting slogans such as "Leave!" and "We don't want the friends of Ben Ali!". (Reuters)
