The protesters have been demonstrating at the U.S. embassy, since Wednesday against the film 'Innocence of Muslims' which was directed in the United States and a trailer for the film appears on video dubbed in Arabic and is highly offensive to Islam. Claims that the film " The Innocence of Muslims" was made by Sam Bacile who it was claimed was an Israeli citizen but organisations like the BBC have found that his identity cannot be verified. The origins of the film are unclear.
According to the Egyptian Ministry of Health, 13 people were injured in the sporadic violence.
Demonstrations have also taken place in Morocco at the US Consulate in Casablanca and Tunisia where the police used tear gas. The US Embassy in Sanaa Yemen was stormed earlier today by crowds, security forces fired in the air. There are no reports of casualties. Other demonstrations have taken place in Sudan, Iraq and Bangladesh.
