North Korean Olympic torch relay without disruptions ... latest leg of the Olympic torch relay has begun.
The torch is being carried through Tibet's capital, Lhasa, three months after the biggest anti-China protests in decades led to violent clashes between demonstrators and police. Security has been beefed up for this leg of the relay, which was disrupted by anti-China protesters in London and Paris.
