In Edinburgh, dozens rallied at St Andrew's Square before marching along Princes Street with blue flares and Scottish flags. The demonstrations follow the charging of a Sudanese man with attempted murder over Monday's knife attack in Belfast, in which the victim suffered injuries to his eyes, back, and face.
