*Violent clashes have erupted between Turkish riot police and thousands 
of angry protesters who attempted to enter Israel's diplomatic missions 
in Ankara and Istanbul. *

Latest reports say hundreds of riot police clashed with angry protesters 
outside the compound of Israel's consulate in Istanbul on Friday evening.

This comes as thousands of protesters also marched on the Israeli 
embassy in the capital Ankara to condemn Israel's killing of Gazan 
civilians.

Sources say the protesters removed the Israeli flag from the building 
and replaced it with the Palestinian and Turkish flags.

The angry demonstrators were protesting Tel Aviv regime's ongoing war on 
the besieged Gaza Strip.

Meanwhile, Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has accused 
Israeli authorities of seeking systematic genocide of the Palestinians.

Erdogan said the world has been witnessing similar acts by Israel on a 
daily basis since its creation in 1948. He condemned the Western 
countries for remaining silent on the Israeli crimes in the holy month 
of Ramadan.

Following the latest protest rallies in Ankara and Istanbul, Tel Aviv 
has announced it will reduce its diplomatic presence in Turkey.

This is while anti-Israeli rallies are being held worldwide in 
condemnation of Tel Aviv's ongoing atrocities against Palestinians in 
the besieged coastal enclave.

Thousands of Jordanians took to the streets of the capital Amman to 
denounce Israel's war and aggression.

A series of fierce clashes also erupted between Palestinian protesters 
and Israeli forces in al-Quds (Jerusalem), leaving dozens injured.

In Indonesia and the Philippines, anti-Israeli demonstrators gathered 
outside the US Embassy and called on Washington to take action and stop 
the killing of Palestinians. Similar protests were also held in India 
and Bangladesh.
