Muslim world vents fury over film
Fury over an anti-Islam film spread across the Muslim world, with deadly clashes near Western embassies in Tunisia and Sudan, an American fast-food restaurant set ablaze in Lebanon, and international peacekeepers attacked in the Sinai despite an appeal for calm from Egypt’s president.
At least four people – all protesters – were killed and dozens wounded in the demonstrations in more than 20 countries from the Middle East to south-east Asia. Most were peaceful but they turned violent in several nations, presenting challenges for the leaders who came to power in the Arab Spring.
