After I updated my previous post on Honduras exiled president Manuel Zelaya’s attempted return to Honduras with the news that he has landed in El Salvador, Fausta’s Blog has reported that shots have been fired at the Tegucigalpa airport and that Noticias 24 confirms “at least two dead, according to a police source talking to AFP, in a clash between demonstrators and the armed forces at the airport.”
The blog also has a lengthy video of the clashes at the airport between the armed forces loyal to interim Honduran president Roberto Micheletti and thousands of demonstrators loyal to Zelaya.
The video quite graphically shows the numerous tear gas attacks, but have your Spanish dictionary handy for the animated Spanish commentary.
