Three people have now been killed in Zimbabwe’s capital Harare after troops opened fire on rioting opposition supporters, police say.
The government says the army was deployed in central Harare to help police restore order.
The opposition MDC Alliance condemned the crackdown, saying it was a reminder of the “dark days” of Robert Mugabe’s rule.
It alleges that the governing Zanu‑PF party has rigged the elections.
Parliamentary results show Zanu‑PF heading for a big majority in the first elections since long‑serving ruler Mr Mugabe was ousted from power.
The presidential result has yet to be declared.
However, the MDC Alliance insists that its presidential candidate Nelson Chamisa won Monday’s election.
