Tensions flare-up between security forces and protesters in Baghdad

Security forces have pushed closer to Baghdad's Tahrir Square, the main anti-government protest camp in Iraq’s capital, reopening several roads that were previously shut down by demonstrators demanding reforms and an overhaul of the country's political system. On Saturday, security forces fired tear gas and live bullets at Khilani Square, a few hundred meters away from Tahrir Square, more about the tensions in Baghdad from our correspondent in Erbil, Ahmad Ghafur.
