Anti-US protestors riot in Karachi

Thousands of anti-American demonstrators are rioting in the streets of Karachi in Pakistan today after a sixth consecutive day of US attacks on neighbouring Afghanistan.

The protestors threw stones at police officers and set fire to a branch of Kentucky Fried Chicken.

More protests are expected across the country throughout the day after it emerged yesterday that American troops are already using two air bases in the country as part of the so-called "war on terrorism".
