 SYDNEY, Australia (AP) - Protesters in Australia burned Chinese flags Tuesday and police arrested 50 activists in Nepal during renewed demonstrations against Beijing's crackdown on Tibet.
In Sydney, about 100 Tibetan immigrants and supporters, many of them weeping, waved flags, photos of the Dalai Lama, the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader, and signs calling for freedom for Tibet. They demanded that Chinese authorities stop killing their countrymen.
The protesters also burned Chinese flags while more than 20 police kept order outside the Chinese consulate in Australia's largest city.
