Chinese Forces Kill Tibetan Protesters

HeadlineJan 25, 2012

The group Free Tibet says two Tibetans were killed in China’s southwestern Sichuan province on Tuesday when state forces fired on a group of demonstrators. The killings followed the reported deaths of two Tibetan protesters and the wounding of 36 others in a different area on Monday.
