Violence erupts in Guinea, the worst since military junta leader Captain Moussa Dadis Camara seized power in a 2008 coup. It follows months of tension with opponents who demand he honor a longstanding pledge to ensure a transition to civilian rule. The death toll from a crackdown by Guinean security forces on opponents of the military junta has risen to 157.
