HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) - An independent doctors organization said Sunday that hundreds of Zimbabweans have been injured or traumatized during a surge of political violence by security authorities over the past month.
Those injured since police violently broke up a prayer vigil in Harare on March 11 include six opposition activists hit by gunshots, one fatally, the Zimbabwe Association of Doctors for Human Rights said.
At least 49 pro-democracy leaders, including Morgan Tsvangirai, head of the main opposition Movement for Democratic Change, needed hospitalization for serious injuries, the group said.
