More than 2 dozen killed in Nicaragua unrest
Protesters clashed with police in Nicaragua's capital on Saturday in ongoing street demonstrations.
Human rights advocates say that since April 18 at least 26 people have been killed in unrest over social security reforms planned by President Daniel Ortega's government.
Dozens have been injured or arrested.
Ortega said Saturday in his first public appearance since the demonstrations began that his government is willing to enter into talks over the dispute.
In a nationally televised address, he said he is open to negotiations so that there is "no more terror for Nicaraguan families."
Also on Saturday, a funeral service was held in Managua for a 10-year-old child who was killed during the unrest.
