TURKEY-MINING-ACCIDENT-PROTEST

A miner reacts during a clash between protesters and police at a demonsration against a recent accidental explosion at a mine, on May 16, 2014, in Soma, Manisa province. Turkish riot police fired tear gas Friday at thousands of protesters at the scene of a disaster that killed nearly 300 miners, as the government faced a worsening political backlash. Police used tear gas, water cannon and plastic bullets to disperse demonstrators chanting anti-government slogans in the western town of Soma, where at least 284 people died in a blast at a coal mine this week.
