Mugabe opponents seek intervention in 'war zone' Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe resembles a war-zone, with thousands of people displaced, hundreds injured and 10 killed by post-election violence, an opposition leader said as he appealed for international intervention.

Tendai Biti, secretary-general of the Movement for Democratic Change, said violence since the March 29 elections had forced 3,000 families out of their homes. Hundreds of people had been taken to hospital with injuries and 10 people killed, he said.
