Fifteen arrested following Glasgow protest clashes

Police in Glasgow have arrested 15 people following significant disorder during opposing demonstrations at Glasgow Green. The violence broke out when an anti-immigration rally organized by the group Unite the Clans met counter-protesters led by Stand Up to Racism Glasgow.

Police Scotland deployed cordons to separate the two groups. Officers subsequently detained individuals on charges including assault, possession of offensive weapons, and public order violations. Unverified video footage posted online showed scuffles near the park's Saltmarket entrance.

Following the clashes, Glasgow City Council Leader Susan Aitken condemned the unrest, stating that "nobody should dignify racist violence and intimidation by painting it as protest."
