Turkish Kurds, Police Clash at Funeral
In Turkey, tensions between Kurds and local police are so high that even a funeral can spark clashes. Police blocked the entrance to a cemetery where locals planned to hold a funeral for two Kurds killed during a protest. When several mourners began throwing stones, police responded with tear gas and water cannons. Those who managed to enter the cemetery also encountered smoke grenades.
