Indian Protest Clashes Leave Nine Dead

BBC World Service - BBC OS, Indian Protest Clashes Leave Nine Dead

People are protesting a copper smelter that some say is causing environmental damage

Nine people have died in clashes with police in the south Indian state of Tamil Nadu amid protests against a copper smelter that residents say is causing environmental damage. We speak to BBC Tamil about #SterliteProtests. Also, fighting is continuing in Ghazni province, South West of the capital Kabul. We'll go there to hear the latest. And a white woman has been booed at a Kendrick Lamar gig for singing the N-word on stage. (Photo: Women shout slogans during a protest against the government and police forces in Chennai.
