UK diplomat Sir Vincent Fean flees W Bank university

A top British diplomat has been forced to cut short a visit to a West Bank university amid protests from angry Palestinian students.

Demonstrators banged and kicked a car carrying Consul General Sir Vincent Fean as he hurriedly left the campus amid fears for his safety.

Sir Vincent had gone to the university near Ramallah to meet students and give a lecture.

Protesters denounced Britain's support for Israel and shouted at him to leave.
