Protesters pelted the Moroccan embassy in Damascus with eggs and stones on Wednesday, Morocco's ambassador said as his country hosted an Arab League meeting aimed at ending bloody unrest in Syria.
The ambassador, Mohammed Khassasi, told AFP that between 100 and 150 demonstrators had attacked the building and stripped it of its flag.
Moroccan Foreign Minister Taib Fassi Fihri condemned the attack, the latest diplomatic mission to be targeted in Syria.
"I condemn the violence against the Moroccan embassy in Syria... and what is happening inside and outside the Arab embassies," he said.
Foreign ministers of the 22-member bloc gathered in Rabat on Wednesday to discuss measures against Syria, after having voted last weekend to suspend the country's membership for failing to implement an Arab peace plan.
