In Pictures: Hezbollah Stages Peaceful Video Protest

  

Hezbollah leader Sayyad Hassan Nasrallah's rare public appearance in Lebanon drew hundreds of thousands of supporters this week, many of them women and children. Preethi Nallu captures images of the crowds, who gathered to peacefully protest an anti-Islam video that has sent shockwaves through the Muslim world.

Women from different generations and backgrounds attended the mass rally in Dahiyeh, a Beirut suburb. Numbering in the tens of thousands, they marched separately from the men, who were on the other side of the road divider.
