No Clashes at Identitarian Demo in Vienna

A direct confrontation between the Identitarian demo and counter-demonstrations was prevented by the police. Nevertheless, according to the police, there were several attempts to disrupt by masked individuals, and eggs and bags filled with feces were briefly thrown at rally participants and law enforcement officers. The more than 200 charges mostly involve administrative offenses under assembly law or because the detainees did not want to disclose their identity.
