Crowds march in Turkey and Jordan. Angry reaction from Arab states is joined by harsh criticism and calls for an explanation or investigation from the U.N. and the European Union.

About 10,000 Turkish demonstrators marched from Israel’s Consulate in Istanbul toward the city’s main square Monday after Israeli forces killed at least 10 pro-Palestinian activists and wounded dozens aboard a Gaza-bound flotilla.
The protesters earlier Monday tried storm the Consulate building but were blocked by police. They set Israeli flags on fire as television stations broadcast the protest live.
