AT least 13 people were injured in clashes in front of the US embassy in the Egyptian capital of Cairo, the state TV reported today, quoting the Health Ministry.
The Egyptian Ambulance Authority said that 11 people among the injured are being treated on the spot, and all of them are in stable conditions, while one person has been transferred to a hospital.
A police vehicle was set ablaze by the protesters, and the clashes show no sign of an end any time soon.
The conflict was allegedly sparked by Egyptians anger towards a movie made in the United States by some anti-Islam people.
Yesterday, the Egyptian government denounced the movie "Innocence of Muslims" as offensive to Prophet Mohammed and immoral, and assigned the Egyptian embassy in Washington to take necessary legal procedures against the filmmaker.
Several thousands of Egyptians on Tuesday surrounded the US embassy in protest of the movie that the Muslim community deems insulting to Prophet Mohammed.
