More than 40 protesters were reportedly injured - including six that claim to have suffered gunshot wounds - following the violence on streets close to the Thai parliament. Clashes continued into the evening before crowds eventually dispersed, with some injured demonstrators being carried away in ambulances.

The movement continued today with a large rally outside the Central World shopping mall at the Ratchaprasong Intersection.
