Clashes have broken out between police and protesters — rallying against the Israeli military offensive in the southern Gazan city of Rafah — outside the Israeli embassy in Mexico, AFP journalists said.
Some protesters covered their faces and threw stones at riot police, who blocked their path to the diplomatic complex in the city’s Lomas de Chapultepec neighbourhood.
Around 200 people joined the “Urgent Action for Rafah” demonstration, about 30 of whom started to break down barriers preventing them from reaching the Israeli mission. Police officers deployed tear gas and threw back the stones hurled at them by protesters.
