Around 70 right-wing extremists demonstrated near boardinghouses inhabited by Roma residents in Ústí nad Labem on Saturday. Riot police prevented far-right supporters from clashing with anarchists, although the groups taunted each other verbally.

Later, there were reportedly some minor incidents at a local train station. A local representative of the radical right-wing Workers’ Party for Social Justice is running in the upcoming regional election; far-right demonstrators have met routinely over two years to try and drum up support based on anti-Roma sentiment.
