LA PAZ, Nov 17, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – Four more people have died in protests in
Bolivia, raising the total number of victims in the political unrest to 23,

The new deaths were announced after five protesters were killed in clashes
with security forces on Friday in central Bolivia, a political stronghold of
exiled ex-president Evo Morales.

The Washington-based IACHR, a part of the Organization of American States,
also recorded 122 wounded since Friday.
