Iraq and some other Muslim-majority countries have strongly condemned the burning of a Quran on Monday by a group called “Danish Patriots” outside the Iraqi embassy in Copenhagen.
The far-right group livestreamed a similar act on Facebook on Friday.
Nearly 1,000 demonstrators in Baghdad tried to reach the Danish embassy after that incident.
Last week, crowds set fire to Sweden’s embassy in Baghdad after the planned burning of a Quran in Stockholm.
In Monday’s incident in Denmark, two anti-Islam protesters stamped on the holy book and set it alight in a tin foil tray next to an Iraqi flag on the ground.
