UK: Anti-Immigration Protests Sweep Scotland After Belfast Knife Attack 2

Protests erupted across Scotland on Tuesday, June 9, with hundreds gathering in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Ayr, and Aberdeen following disorder in Belfast sparked by a knife attack. In Glasgow, demonstrators — mostly young men dressed in black — marched from the Royal Concert Hall toward the Clyde River, prompting street closures including Glasgow Bridge. 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.
