CAIRO (AFP) - Nearly 3,000 Egyptians protested against the recent Israeli raid on Syria and the U.S. occupation in Iraq, gathering after Friday prayers at the Al-Azhar mosque, a police source said.

Worshippers gathered within the walls of the mosque in central Cairo, chanting slogans vilifying Israel and the United States, the source said.

The demonstrators denounced the "barbaric" Israeli raid launched Sunday on Syrian territory, the Egyptian press agency MENA reported.
