THOUSANDS of angry Muslims took to the streets across Afghanistan yesterday, some threatening to attack United States bases, sparked by a US pastor's plan to burn the Quran.
At least 11 people have been injured.
Police in the northern province of Badakhshan said several hundred demonstrators ran toward a NATO compound where four attackers and five police were injured in clashes. Protesters also burned an American flag at a mosque after yesterday's prayers.
In western Farah province, police said two people were injured in another protest.
Police also said initial reports that someone was killed were wrong.
