Thousands of people have attended rallies to express anger at Israel's air raids on the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip.
There have been protests in Indonesia, Iraq, Venezuela and Lebanon.
RIOT police were on standby in London today after pro-Palestinian demonstrators tried to storm the Israeli embassy.
Hundreds of officers clashed with hardcore protesters as they drove the demonstrators back from the building in Kensington.
Their anger had been fired by Israel's assault on Palestinian militant group Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
A dozen rioters were arrested as up to 2,000 tried to surround the embassy in Palace Green yesterday. Police closed off neighbouring streets for nearly six hours, resulting in traffic chaos.
