Senegal's capital and other cities witnessed clashes between security forces and protesters, marking widespread unrest stemming from the postponement of a presidential election, which many fear could breed prolonged instability.
In Dakar, riot police deployed tear gas, stun grenades, and apparent rubber bullets against protesters burning tires and hurling stones, as reported.
Meanwhile, in the northern city of Saint-Louis, opposition leader Khalifa Sall claimed that a student was killed during the unrest.
