Beirut, Dec 28 (Xinhua) Hundreds of Palestinian refugees in Lebanon Saturday marched to the Egyptian embassy here to protest against the Israeli raids on Gaza.
Riot police have thrown a security ring around the embassy in western Beirut to prevent the protesters from entering into the premises, Hezbollah Al-Nour radio reported.
Lebanese soldiers were also deployed to control the situation, it said.
The protesters were from the Palestinian refugee camp Bourj el-Barajneh in the southern part of the city.
On Saturday morning, Israel launched massive air strikes against Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip, hitting more than 30 targets, mostly security compounds of the Islamic Hamas movement.
According to Palestinian officials, at least 200 people were killed and 750 others wounded in the attacks.

To all concerned
" All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is people, politicians, and political leaders around the world either stay mum or shift the blame onto oppressed, occupied, and tormented"
What Israel is doing in the name of security onto impoverished and victimized Palestinians is a solid and ultimate State Sponsored Terrorism and same is true about India who has turned divided Kashmir into massive concentration camp on the Top of World.
As a naturalized Kashmir born American Citizen, disabled American Veteran and Forensic psychiatrist, I plead to my current president, Hon. President Bush to stop all aid to Israel and freeze the any relationship with India.
I suggest to incoming president elect, Hon. Barrack Obama to appoint outgoing president as special envoy to permanently, peacefully and amicably solve Israel-Palestinian Conflict and Hon. former President Bill Clinton to erase the line of conflict [LOC] between the divided people of Kashmir.
Yours truly,
