Moroccans Burn Themselves in Unemployment Protest

Five Moroccan protesters set themselves on fire on Wednesday in Rabat during a protest over the country's high unemployment rate, which has hit young people and college graduates particularly hard. Three of the protesters had to be hospitalised, two with serious burns. They had been occupying a government building. Al Jazeera's Azhar Sukri reports.
