Protesters in Turkey march to the US embassy

Supporters of an Islamist group marched to the US Embassy in Ankara on Sunday, hours ahead of Secretary of State Antony Blinken's expected arrival in the Turkish capital.

Several hundred protesters chanted “God is great” and held their index fingers skywards as they approached the compound in the city's Cukurambar neighbourhood. Riot police lined up in front of the US complex as the crowd, many carrying black and white flags with Arabic script, called for Turkish soldiers to be sent to Gaza. (AP)
