More than 2,500 people marched through the streets of Athens to the embassy carrying Palestinian flags and chanting “Free Palestine!”
A group of protesters broke off the march, which was largely peaceful, and hurled stones at police who had formed a security cordon outside the embassy. Police fired tear gas to disperse them.
Three people were detained during the brief clashes, a police official said.
Earlier this month, violence broke out during a pro-Palestinian rally in central Athens, a day after the Israeli military launched a ground and air operation in part of eastern Rafah in the Gaza Strip.
