Tunisia : Protesters burn furniture during a clash with riot police

Protesters burn furniture during a clash with riot police in Cite Ettadhamen near the Tunisian capital Tunis. Tunisian President Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali fired his interior minister on Wednesday after a deadly wave of violent unrest, the biggest in decades, reached the capital for the first time. People taking part in the unrest say they are angry about unemployment, corruption and what they say is a repressive government. Officials say the protests have been hijacked by a minority of violent extremists who want to undermine Tunisia.
