Sept 7 (Reuters) - Taliban gunmen fired in the air on Tuesday to scatter protesters in the Afghan capital of Kabul, witnesses said, as video showed scores of people scurrying to escape volleys of gunfire, although there were no immediate reports of injuries.
Hundreds of men and women shouting slogans such as "Long live the resistance," and "Death to Pakistan" marched in the streets to protest against the Taliban and what they called interference in Afghanistan's affairs by neighbouring Pakistan.
"The Islamic government is shooting at our poor people," one panic-stricken woman on the street says over sounds of gunfire in an Iranian television news video clip. "These people (Taliban) are very unjust, and they are not human at all."
