Crackdown on protests in Turkey

Protesteors clash with riot policemen on Taksim Square in Istanbul, Tuesday. Turkish police fired massive volleys of tear gas and jets of water to disperse thousands of anti-government demonstrators in the square. The gas sent the crowd scrambling, raising tensions on a 12th day of violence after Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan warned he had “no more tolerance” for the mass demonstrations. / AFP-Yonhap
