Police in Hampshire arrest 12 people after an anti-migrant protest and a public order incident in Gosport, southern England, the day before. Reports describe several hundred protesters gathering at a marina, forming amid rumours of a small boat arriving in the town. Hampshire Police say arrests are linked to offences including assaulting a police officer.
Multiple outlets describe similar events and crowd size estimates, with some putting the crowd at several hundred and one at about 350. The Express Tribune adds context that migrants are rescued in the Channel, and that the protests follow those arrivals. Meanwhile, The Mirror’s initial report mentions six arrests and refers to clashes with police, while subsequent reporting from the same outlet and other sources indicates the total reaches 12. Authorities do not report details on what prompted the alleged assault beyond the broader clash with officers.
