Demonstrations are held across the world against the Israeli atrocities in Gaza as Tel Aviv continues its offensive for the 22nd day.

Angry protestors threw their shoes towards the building of the Israeli embassy in capital Buenos Aires.

Protestors wore the traditional Palestinian black-and-white scarf known as the chafiyeh and chanted anti-Israeli slogans, "Israelis mu
st leave Palestine" and "Stop your crimes in Gaza".

Some of the demonstrators belonged to the country's Islamic community, which is estimated to have 700,000 members.

Iraq

Hundreds of Iraqi people gathered in the streets of Sadr City, setting fire on the flags of Israel and the United States.

The Iraqi youth also held rallies after Friday's prayers in Sadr City, trampling underfoot US and Israeli flags and chanting slogans. People raised Palestinian flags on their houses as a sign of support of the Palestinian resistance in Gaza.

Yemen

Thousands of Yemenis held demonstrations in capital Sana'a, urging the unity of the Arab leaders against Israel.

Protestors held pictures of Hamas leaders, the Turkish prime minister and Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, whose country expelled the Israeli ambassador in Caracas in protest to Israel's attacks on Gaza Strip.

About 1,200 Palestinians, half of them civilians, have been killed and more than 5,300 injured since Israel began its offensive against Gaza Strip on December 27.
