Zimbabweans Mark Anniversary of Post-Election Shootings

Columbus Mavhunga

   HARARE, ZIMBABWE - Zimbabwe's opposition parties, human rights groups
   and churches marked the one-year anniversary Thursday of the day when
   the army killed about a dozen people protesting the delayed release of
   election results.

   Members of the crowd say they will continue asking for divine
   intervention in this southern African nation, where the political
   landscape has been long tainted by violence.

   Loveday Munesi could not attend Thursday's event. He was shot in the
   melee on Aug. 1, 2018, and a bullet lodged in his right buttock. Since
   then, he has been unable to work or walk comfortably.
