More protests over Iraq raids

There have been more demonstrations in the Middle East in support of Iraq and against the air strikes by American and British forces last week.

In Lebanon, at least twenty people were reported to have been injured when police clashed with protesters marching on the US embassy in Beirut.

Demonstrators chanted 'Death to America' and shouted that attacking Iraq was a crime against all Arabs.

In the Gaza Strip, Palestinians staged a pro-Iraq rally and urged Iraq to strike at Tel Aviv.
