called "With Noise Against War" was staged outside of the U.S.

About 500 mostly young protesters gathered at 11.30 AM in the
Francuska Republika Square and shortly after noon headed towards
the U.S. Embassy under police escort. They created noise by banging
on drums, blowing whistles and horns. They also carried anti-war
banners and banners against the U.S. policy.
The protesters arrived at the U.S. Embassy at 12.45 PM. They
protested for about 50 minutes after which they dispersed
peacefully.
Drazen Simlesa said on behalf of the initiative that since the
beginning of the U.S. strike on Iraq, members of the non-
governmental association, dressed in black, had been gathering
outside the embassy between 17.00 and 18.00 hours every day to
protest in silence.
