Picture gallery: Fury at embassy bombing
Angry demonstrators gathered outside US and UK diplomatic buildings in China, in protest at Nato's bombing of the Chinese embassy in Belgrade.
The US embassy was the main target of protests in the Chinese capital, Beijing.
Bus loads of students from university campuses swelled the protests.
The Chinese authorities said they supported the protests as long as they remained legal.
They also said they would protect diplomats on Chinese soil.
There was a heavy police presence at the US embassy - already damaged by bricks and stones thrown by protesters.
Demonstrators took to the streets in Hong Kong.
There was anger outside the consulate of the territory's one-time rulers - the UK.
The US consulate in the southern city of Guangzhou also attracted protests.
