Protests turned violent in Jordan's capital Friday as government supporters clashed with demonstrators calling for political reforms.
Witnesses say at least eight people were injured when the government supporters attacked the demonstrators with batons.
Hundreds of people gathered in Amman for the pro-reform rally. The demonstrations follow weeks of similar street protests in Jordan that resemble the uprisings spreading through the Arab world.
Jordanians are demanding constitutional reforms and limits on King Abdullah's authority.
King Abdullah dismissed his Cabinet earlier this month after thousands of Jordanians took to the streets to protest against rising food and fuel prices.
