People in the largest Turkish city of Istanbul have condemned the Libyan government's bloody crackdown on the popular uprising in the North African country.
Hundreds of demonstrators took to streets of Istanbul on Monday and marched to the nearby Libyan consulate in the northwestern city, chanting slogans against Libya's 42-year-long Leader Muammar Gaddafi.
The protesters held up posters featuring the Libyan leader and reading "Gaddafi is a murderer" and "You will be covered in the blood you shed."
The Libyan popular protests, which entered its sixth day on Tuesday, has been inspired by the ones in Egypt and Tunisia, which toppled the long-held grip of the countries' presidents on power.
Ankara has voiced concern over the armed suppression of the protests in Libya while the International Federation for Human Rights says as many as 400 people have been killed in the attacks.
