(CNN) -- A wave of anger and outrage sparked by an obscure film clip spread to more Muslim countries Thursday as protesters massed outside U.S. embassies in Africa and the Middle East.
The fallout comes after Tuesday's attack at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, which claimed the lives of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other consular officials. The deadly security breach happened on the 11th anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks and heightened tensions across the region.
How the Benghazi attack unfolded
The violence and protests stem from a 14-minute film trailer that mocks Islam's prophet. It was posted in July on YouTube, but got more notice after Egyptian television recently aired segments and anti-Islam activists promoted it online.
In response to Tuesday's attack in Libya, the United States deployed Marines to secure its interests in the region, as well as warships and drones to hunt for those responsible for killing the four American diplomatic staffers. Here's the latest on the violence, the response, and the implications:
Protests continue
Since Tuesday's deadly assault in Libya -- and a protest the same day at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo -- demonstrations, both small and large, have been reported in Israel, Gaza, Libya, Egypt, Yemen, Sudan, Tunisia, Morocco, Iraq, Iran and among Muslims in the Indian-controlled region of Kashmir. Security has been heightened at U.S. diplomatic missions worldwide.
While some protesters say they have not seen any of the online film, they were incensed by reports of its depiction of the Prophet Mohammed.
American tourists cautious, but undeterred
One of the largest protests Thursday took place outside the U.S. Embassy in Cairo. One photo from Cairo shows a chalk drawing on the ground of a Jewish star with the words in Arabic, "Remember your black day 11 September." Demonstrators threw rocks and Molotov cocktails as police tried to disperse them by firing tear gas canisters.
At least 13 protesters and six police officers were injured, Egyptian government officials said.
The instability in Egypt is a primary concern to U.S. President Barack Obama, who warned in an interview with Telemundo that it would be "a real big problem" if the leaders in Egypt failed to protect American interests there.
Another massive protest took place Thursday in Sanaa, Yemen, where demonstrators breached a security wall at the U.S. Embassy as several thousand people protested outside.
Here are details about other protests:
-- In Tunisia and Morocco, protesters massed in front of U.S. embassies.
-- In Gaza City, Palestinians demonstrated outside U.N. headquarters, and about 200 Palestinians protested the film at the Palestine Legislative Council building. In one instance, Palestinian men burned a U.S. flag.
-- In Tel Aviv, Israel, about 50 people demonstrated in front of the U.S. Embassy.
-- In Sudan, the United States called on U.S. citizens Wednesday to stay away from the embassy in Khartoum, where protests were going on.
-- Iranians protested near the Swiss Embassy in Tehran on Thursday. Switzerland represents U.S. interests in Iran, since Washington and Tehran do not have diplomatic relations. Up to 500 people chanted "Death to America!" and called for death to the director of the movie, which was made in the United States. The demonstration ended peacefully after two hours.
We’re supposed to blame a YouTube video for this insanity?
Horse hockey.
The Muslim Brotherhood is playing us for fools. And will continue to do so until the Obama regime is booted out.
Thanks combat_boots. Have a great evening, all.
Surprised that, in some of the threads here on FR, there are people blaming the film maker, Rev Terry Jones, and everything else....except for the Islamic Terrorists. Quite a few are yapping up the Obama Spin
If you are blaming the riots and carnage on any one beside Islam and Islamic Terrorists...you are a big part of the problem
Time to get honest and real about Islam and Islamic Terrorism.
And Hillary works for whom?
IOW, we need to hope that Zero hangs onto her — and I think he will, it gives him a scapegoat who remains in the public eye.
More than that, I think we've found an excellent way to keep these troglodytes occupied and agitated. Someone should be creating a series of anti-Mohammed movies and books every 6 months or so for this purpose.
The more they are out on the street, the more their countries go down the tubes. It is sad to say so, but perpetual strife and internal conflict is the best way for the USA to manage many M.E. countries.
The RINOs leading the Repub. Party need to start apologizing to Michelle Bachmann.
Great points.
We are in a holy war. They know it.
Apparently, ‘official’ we don’t.
Cadets, midshipmen, get a pencil and get schooled.

There is no such thing as radical/extremist Islam. There is only Islam. The words written on the Libyan embassy said, “Allah is great. There is no allah but allah. Mohammed is his prophet.” This is the muslim profession of faith, the shahada.
The black flags that were raised all over there with Arabic on them SAY THE SHAHADA. They are NOT flags of Al Qaeda. The black flag, however, is the Islamic flag of revolution.
Research salafism/salafi. This is violent and has merged with Wahabbi thought. Al Qaradawi now espouses it and has written about the spiritual merger that EVOLVES.
Now, Egypt has linked up with Iran. Well, Egypt and Syria used to be one country.......
Caroline Glick ‘gets’ all this. Read up on what she has written.
Also Hirsan Ali and Orianna Fallaci’s “Rage and Pride.”
For easy reading, read “Ali and Nino.” (love story. Very mystic).
Oh.
One more thing.
The MB sired AQ. Now, the MB is violent.........
Look up the background of Zawahiri. And the Bin Laden family....who are big in Yemen.
I thought so for a long time.
But your graphic's got me thinking.
Maybe Carter is Obama's father, and Obama is Carter's son.
“I thought so for a long time.
But your graphic’s got me thinking.

The physical likeness and personal hatred of America and what is right in our world of the two losers is amazing.
Just make sure you have enough ammo.
The Muslims are revolting, heh heh...
