 Demonstrators are mainly made up of youths who have taken to the street in the seats of Saar and Kumra in southern Chad. The activists marched in peaceful protest against the newly emerged transitional military council, a regime strongly supported by France. The former coloniser has been strongly won by the country's opposition parties, not a medal in Chadian affairs. Several witnesses say security forces fired tear gas and even passing military vehicles fired live ammunition into the crowd, injuring at least four people. One person was reported to be seriously wounded. To twirl demonstrations, the police also made arrests, although it is not yet clear how how many people have been detained.
