"Controversial Quran Burning in Sweden Ignites Global Outrage"

The burning of a copy of the Quran in Sweden has sparked condemnation from several Muslim-majority countries, including Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt. Turkey, a NATO member, called it a "despicable act" and criticized Sweden for allowing such actions under the pretext of freedom of expression. The incident, which took place during the Muslim festival of Eid al-Adha, has led to the recall of Morocco's ambassador to Stockholm and the summoning of Sweden's charge d'affaires in Rabat. While the protest was permitted by Swedish police, it is now being investigated for incitement of hatred.
