Protesters attempted to storm the U.S. Embassy in Yemen’s capital Sana’a yesterday and at least four were killed, while demonstrators rallied in Egypt and Iran against a film seen as insulting to Islam.
The spread of violence follows the killing of the American ambassador to Libya, Chris Stevens, and three colleagues during an attack on consular buildings in Benghazi on Sept. 11. Several people were arrested in Libya for that attack, Al Arabiya TV reported yesterday, citing the Libyan Interior Ministry.
