In support of Palestine / Protests throughout the Arab world

Protests in the Islamic world over fighting between Israel and Hamas. Foreign media reports that thousands of Iraqis are gathering in Baghdad in support of the Palestinians in Gaza. 

"This rally aims to condemn what is happening in occupied Palestine, the bloodshed and the violation of rights," Abu Kayan, one of the organizers, told the AFP news agency.

It is just one of several rallies planned for today across the Middle East, after senior Hamas and Hezbollah figures called for people to protest after Friday prayers.

Former Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal called on people yesterday to "go to squares and open spaces throughout the Arab and Islamic world" to rally.

Today, several such gatherings are expected in Lebanon, Tunisia and Jordan.
