Two protesters burned a copy of the Koran, Islam’s holy book, in front of the Iraqi embassy in the Danish capital Copenhagen today, risking a further deterioration in diplomatic relations between the two countries.

The two protesters were from a group calling themselves “Danish Patriots” who held a similar demonstration last week, broadcasting the incident live on Facebook.

Several thousand Iraqis protested in Baghdad on Saturday over the burning or destruction of Korans during anti-Islam protests in Sweden and Denmark.

The organizer of today’s demonstration in Copenhagen stepped on the Koran and set it on fire on a small aluminum disc next to the Iraqi flag on the ground.
