This Week in Pictures: 2-8 Novermber

The week was marked by mass protests that continued to shake Chile, Lebanon, Iraq, and Hong Kong, with numerous clashes between the protestors and police forces.

At the same time, Mexico celebrated the Day of the Dead (Dia de Los Muertos) with a traditional carnival, while Russia held a ceremony to commemorate the WWII parade, which took place in Moscow on 7 November 1941.

The week also brought us a lot of fashion and sports news - and a lot of insane photos as well.
