RT | Clashes have broken out between refugees and football hooligans as the
latter pelted smoke bombs and fireworks at the asylum seekers at the
Keleti train station in Budapest. At least one person was injured before
riot police intervened.
The refugees responded with plastic bottles and shoes, RT’s correspondent Daniel Hawkins reported from the scene on Friday.
Refugees formed human chain between riot police and their comrades to
stop the violence, he added. Police arrested a number of football
hooligans.
Syrian refugees were shouting “Freedom, freedom, we want peace” as well as “Fascists!” at the radical football fans.
At least one person, a refugee, was injured in the clashes.
On Friday, the so-called Visegrád Four – Czech Republic, Slovakia,
Hungary and Poland –met at an emergency summit in Prague to discuss the
influx of refugees to the EU. As a result the four released a statement
rejecting plans for quotas for refugees seeking asylum in the EU.
