VOICED: Eight dead as urban warfare breaks out in Bangkok

The transcript describes ongoing urban warfare in Bangkok, where anti-government protesters, known as red shirts, have clashed with military forces for three consecutive days. The protests have resulted in 22 civilian deaths over two days. The red shirts demand the government's resignation and new elections, supporting former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, who was ousted in a 2006 coup. Despite agreeing to early elections, the current government retracted the offer when protesters refused to disperse. The Prime Minister insists on continuing the military crackdown, indicating more violence is likely.
