Anti-immigration protesters torch buildings and vehicles, block roads over Belfast stabbing


Anti-immigration protesters torched buildings and vehicles in Belfast on Tuesday evening and blocked roads, a day after a stabbing allegedly by a Sudanese refugee, captured in a graphic video that shocked the country. Hundreds of protesters, many masked, gathered at several locations across Belfast, AFP journalists saw. A bus and several cars were set alight, while a building fringing the city center caught fire and its residents had to be evacuated. FRANCE 24’s Angela Diffley tells us more.
