"Military seizes 2 police stations
MASERU — Lesotho’s military seized two police stations Saturday as gunfire rang out in the capital of the mountainous kingdom. The prime minister said the actions amounted to a coup, though an army spokesman said the soldiers were only securing the country. Political tensions have been high in the kingdom since June, when there was a power struggle after Prime Minister Thomas Thabane suspended Parliament to dodge a no-confidence vote."
