There is no readily available information online regarding whether animals were harmed. Animals are, however, depicted as scared or injured in the film, and this film is from 1984 - viewer discretion advised.

There is a very brief, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment, where a stray dog is hiding under some porch steps, and it looks absolutely terrified from the loud gunshot noises. Happens right after the reporters are let out of the tank and witness someone get executed on their knees. I don’t know if it was a trained dog reaction, or a stray that happened to wander onto the set and the cameras accidentally caught the moment.

After the scene in the wear house full of cola a cow is shown struggling to get up, I think it’s legs were broken or blown of. At 01:16:41 a few already dead pig are dragged out of a car onto the road it’s likely that they are being used to feed the embassy

It is mentioned that children are dead, at the same time a child is carried on a stretcher, then we see a child lying seriously injured.

Sort of. At one point, the two main characters are threatened at gunpoint and brought to another location.

The film is about an armed insurrection, so yes. There are many guns pointed at characters throughout the film, as well as people shot both on and off screen.
