Far-right anti-migrant groups clashed with riot police in a town in southeastern Spain late on Sunday (July 13) following an attack on an elderly man by unknown assailants earlier in the week.
Far-right groups hurled glass bottles and objects at riot police who fired rubber bullets.
Violent clashes also erupted between far-right groups, local residents and North African migrants on Saturday (July 12).
Tensions flared up between local residents and migrants after the elderly man was attacked in the street on Wednesday, causing injuries from which he is recovering at home. The reasons behind the assault are unclear and no one has been arrested.
