Unrest has erupted at a regime-loyal Eritrean festival at Järvafältet in Stockholm on Thursday, Expressen writes.

According to the newspaper, around 1,000 counter-protesters should be on site and stone throwing has occurred. People in the group are said to have also taken poles and tent pegs from demolished tents to use as extras, according to Expressen.

Dagens Nyheter writes that at least one person should be injured.

The police write on their website: “At the moment, it is not possible to say anything other than that the police are there to stop criminal acts.”

Expressen states that at least nine police buses are on site.
