Sudan's police fired teargas on Friday to stop about 5,000 demonstrators storming the German and British embassies to protest against an anti-Islam film, according to Reuters. Protesters also clashed with police in Yemen on Friday, where one person died and 15 were injured the day before when the US embassy compound was stormed.
In the Lebanese city of Tripoli, one person was killed as demonstrators set fire to a KFC fast-food restaurant. The German Embassy in Khartoum, Sudan, was vacated before the protest that reportedly has set the building on fire, the German Foreign Ministry said.
A Reuters reporter saw protesters enter the embassy building in central Khartoum, smash windows and start a fire in front of the main gate. Five people were injured in protests in Cairo, state media said. There are also clashes in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa.
In Gaza, thousands of people rallied at demonstrations in Gaza City and the southern town of Rafah, a day after the ruling Hamas party urged citizens to turn out for protests after Friday prayers. In Yemen, security forces opened fire on protesters near the U.S. Embassy, witnesses said.
Hundreds of people demonstrated in cities around Pakistan on Friday to denounce an anti-Islam movie, with some urging death for the film-maker and others demanding the expulsion of US diplomats. Indonesian Muslims shout slogans as they hold a banner which reads "Prophet Muhammad is symbol of Islam" during a protest against an anti-Islam film that has sparked anger among followers, outside the U.S. Embassy in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Since an initial Associated Press story about the provenance and supposed $5-million cost of the movie, many doubts have been raised about the weird film.
Security forces in Yemen fired warning shots and used water cannons against hundreds of protesters near the US embassy in Sanaa. "Today is your last day, ambassador!", and "America is the devil", some placards read.
