Members of an ultranationalist group in Denmark have repeated the desecration of the holy Quran, despite widespread protests across the world of Islam.

Members of the Danske Patrioter, or Danish Patriots, burned copies of the Quran in front of the Turkish, Pakistani, Algerian, Indonesian and Iranian embassies in Copenhagen.

The provocations, in which anti-Islamic slogans were shouted, took place under police protection.

Videos shared by the group on Facebook are restricted.

Recent months have seen repeated acts of Quran burning, desecration or attempts to do so by Islamophobic figures or groups, especially in Sweden and Denmark, drawing outrage from Muslim countries and the world.
