Opposition protests broken up by riot police in Algiers
Riot police in Algeria have broken up an opposition demonstration by several hundred people in the capital, Algiers. The protesters had been calling for greater freedom.
Activists say more than forty people were injured. Some of the demonstrators waved Tunisian flags in a reference to unrest which brought down the president of neighbouring Tunisia last week.
