Fourteen people were slightly wounded Tuesday in the central Tunisian city of Kasserine when police fired tear gas to disperse hundreds of demonstrators demanding jobs. Authorities later imposed a curfew on the impoverished city, where tensions have been high since Saturday when a young unemployed man suffered a fatal electric shock during a protest. Some protesters threw stones and set tyres alight while others climbed on the roof of the governor's office. Police dispersed them by firing tear gas. |
