TURKEY-POLITICS-UNREST

A demonstrator winds up to throw a molotov cocktail in Taksim square in Istanbul, early on June 11, 2013 as demonstrators and riot police clashed. Riot police re-entered Istanbul's protest square today, firing tear gas and rubber bullets at firework-hurling demonstrators in a fresh escalation of unrest after Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said he would meet with protest leaders. Hundreds of police officers backed by armoured cars moved in on Taksim Square -- the epicentre of nearly two weeks of deadly anti-government demos -- in the early morning, saying they wanted to remove makeshift barricades erected by protesters and clear the area of flags and banners.
