Iraqis involved in the country’s anti-government demonstrations have created a protest "newspaper", which includes a list of their demands.

The journal, which also contains several articles, is named “tuk-tuk” after the three-wheeled rickshaw which has become a symbol of the uprising.

According to information on social media, protester demands range from the "instant resignation of the government" to “conducting a new election under UN supervision”.

Hundreds of Iraqis have died and thousands more have been injured in the anti-government protests, which started in early October.

They have been fuelled by poverty, accusations of rampant government corruption, unemployment and crumbling public services.

Until recently, the tuk-tuk was considered to be the ride of lower-class citizens.

But they are playing a key role in the protests by shepherding wounded people to safety, leading some to dub the demonstrations “the tuk-tuk revolution”.
