Gunfire, protests in Syria's Hama

Live footage carried on al Jazeera television showed gunfire and black smoke rising above Syria's central city of Hama as dozens of men marched through the streets chanting "Where are the Arab monitors".

Arab League monitors checking if Syria is ending a military crackdown on popular unrest are due to visit the city tomorrow. In its footage, al Jazeera showed one man bleeding from his neck as protesters shouted in the background.
