AlQa'dah 1, 1434, Sep 7, 2013, SPA -- Police used tear gas and rubber bullets to scatter anti-government protesters who interrupted an independence day military parade in Rio de Janeiro on Saturday, and demonstrations in dozens of other cities led to some scuffles between marchers and police, AP reported. Police said they arrested at least 10 people in Rio, and at least six marchers were injured. It was one of more than 100 planned demonstrations across Brazil, with unions, student groups, anarchists and other groups calling for an end to political corruption and drastically improved public services in health, transportation, education and security. In the capital Brasilia, about 1,000 protesters gathered in front of congress. While in the most part peaceful, police and activists clashed at times. -- SPA 20:36 LOCAL TIME 17:36 GMT تغريد
