		</div><p>Nine more people have been killed in anti-government protests in a southern Iraqi city, bringing this week’s overall toll across the nation to 42, officials said.</p>
<p>Hospital officials said the deaths occurred late on Thursday in Nasiriyah, which has witnessed the most violence in the protests, with at least 25 people killed, including a policeman.</p>
<p>The city is about 200 miles south east of Baghdad.</p>
<p>Since Tuesday, security forces have fired live rounds and tear gas every day to disperse protesters demanding job opportunities, improved services and an end to corruption.</p>
<p>Prime minister Adel Abdul-Mahdi who hails from Nasiriyah, has urged calm, saying he is working to meet protesters’ legitimate demands but adding that there is no magic solution for Iraq’s problems.</p>
