Pro-democracy activists in Thailand launched their fifth consecutive day of protests on Sunday, scheduling demonstrations in the capital and at several other locations around the country.

The demonstrators received a new warning from police that they were violating the law, but few people were arrested on Saturday as thousands of people took part in peaceful rallies held at various points around Bangkok.
