Protesters help woman mown down by military vehicle in Mozambique


A military vehicle mowed down a woman in the Mozambican capital, Maputo, as protests have gripped the southern African country weeks after an election that the opposition said was rigged.

Videos of the incident on Wednesday that have been widely shared on social media showed an armoured vehicle speeding down a busy street into a makeshift wooden barricade attended by protesters and then driving over the woman.

She sustained head injuries but was not in danger of dying, the director of the emergency department at Maputo central hospital said on Thursday.
